The advice is designed to highlight failings in the government's multimillion-pound plan to install "black box" e- mail recorders on the premises of Internet service providers (ISPs). Distributed to MPs earlier this week, the paper is a last-ditch attempt to explain why the Regulation of Investigatory Powers (RIP) Bill is unworkable. If passed by Parliament this week, RIP will give security forces unprecedented powers to snoop on Internet users and demand encryption keys. But Ian Brown, an Internet security expert at University College London, and Brian Gladman, a former Ministry of Defence information security expert, state in their briefing paper that the interception technology that the Bill requires is already obsolete. Rather than helping catch criminals, they say these recorders would be easy for criminals to evade. They describe the powers in the Bill as "technically inept", and list a number of ways in which someone with no technical know-how could circumvent black boxes installed at ISPs. They say the introduction of affordable "always-on" ultrafast connections, such as ADSL, will change the way people access the Internet, with more and more setting up their own mail servers. When this happens, says Brown, there is no reason why people shouldn't bypass ISPs and the government's snooping boxes installed there (click on thumbnail for diagram). This can't be done with dial-up connections because mail servers need to listen out constantly for new mail.
