Detector vans indeed!

I can't believe El-Reg is even posting this and the amount of people who seem to think it has merit.

If the government/BBC want to find out who's streaming from iPlayer it would just need to request that information from the ISP.

So many experts on here trying to show their knowledge of packet sniffing, encryption and vans and getting sucked into a nonsense argument.

Article was clearly written by someone who got their knowledge of IT from Hollywood.
