Pew releases 'Carnivore' survey.
The Pew Internet & American Life Project released a survey on public attitudes in regard to online crime & governmental attempts to combat it. "Some 54% of Americans approve of the idea of FBI monitoring of suspects' email, while 34% disapprove." "Forty-five percent of people who have heard of it say Carnivore is good because it will allow the FBI a new way of tracking down criminals. Another 45% say Carnivore is bad because it could be used to read emails to and from ordinary citizens."
