So the worry is that this powerful information will be recorded and will be sitting there and there won't be much control on how it is used. Whereas鑑於 in the past if the government had wanted to go and search somebody's house then they would have to go and get a court order法庭命令 to go and do that."

"This is critical嚴重 infrastructure基礎設施. This is something we have to keep open; we have to keep it neutral中性. It's like, interfering with Her Majesty's mails. It's a no-no.
