gangstalking gangstalking:
AS usual you missed the point. I can't see someone on the street and use the telephone book to look that person up. Many people have cellphones and are not listed.
The phone book is very different. Even if I look up Cathy Jones, I might not get the right person.
Goddamit. The point of the question is not how people use the telephone book. The point is the information that is available IN the phonebook, which is readily available without a warrant, and what is available to the police without a warrant. In both cases, and peer in close to your monitor because this is the salient part, the name, address and ISP/phonenumber are available. The ISP is interchangeable with the telephone number. This is nothing new.
Now, if you want to explain technical legal differences that would alter this fundamental understanding, please do so.
And don't tell me how people use the phonebook as your example.
$1:
Warrant, thanks for the correction. Some cops have nothing better to do than randomly search people. I am not assuming this.
Oh yes, either you read it on the internet or it happened during one of your delusions.
$1:
It's different because gangstalking, he or she does not feed poisoned meat to dogs, and the phone book does not provide the information in these warrant. A person could make a comment in a public place and a cop could hear it, and unless they tailed them back to their home, they would not know who that person is, where they live or any other info.
Firstly, your first sentence doesn't make any sense. Please fix it since it's incoherent. Secondly, your example falls flat because you make too many assumptions. Tailing a person to their home doesn't reveal the identity of that person, since it implies that you can learn who resides at a place by mere address, PLUS it implies the person lives there.
If a person says anything of note, like uttering a threat, inciting genocide or inciting a riot, that person gets arrested. Nobody lives in your fantasyland of cops following people around because they heard a disparaging comment. And your internet anecdotes don't impress.
$1:
Now they can look up protesters who comment online, people who make comments they don't like, or other enemies. It's a big difference.
Great! And once they learn who subscribes to an ISP, how do they determine who was at the keyboard to make those comments? I'll let your army of mental demons wrestle with that one for a while. Plus, I don't believe in your fantasyland where the police track down people who hurt their feelings.
$1:
No you can't. If it's a hot chick, I doubt she would give you the time of day, so how would you know her name to look her up in the phone book? Think about it.
Firstly, don't worry about hot chicks talking to me. I don't live your sheltered life. Secondly, and this is the part that will scare you, you can ask OTHER people who she is! It's called socializing, try some today!
$1:
If a cop sees some hotchick in a bar, he also can not pick her information up just like that. Where now if a cop sees a sexy comment, and wants to find said sexy comment chick, they could use a pretence to get info on her from her ISP. All you have to say is I am from division such and such, here is my badge, etc. The law did say there would be some paper work after the fact, but the damage is done. Also I am sure many companies will give this info up, and not even bother following up on paper work. That's the difference.
Once again, we follow old Gangstalking down her onslaught of assumptions after assumptions. Yup, some cop sitting at home cruising the internet sees a sexy commment and somehow knows how to get the ISP of the person who sent it. Then, because he has no life, he calls up the ISP and lies because he knows that people who make steamy comments on line are sexy in real life. And women too. From where he lives so it's worthwhile, because it only works in Canada and why stalk a woman in Cornerbrook when you live in Winnipeg. And then, the "paper work after the fact" is called a production order with all of its legal trappings, but hey, there's a potential slut on the internet to track down, so the ISP dutifully turns a blind eye and erases the query from its database in case the audit reveals their complicity in tracking down a chick.
For Christ's sake!

Yes previously cellphone info was retained, but now the emails, and other info will be retained. I am not saying Echelon was not spying, but now local ISP's will legally have to retain your info. They currently are not required to.
Echelon is American and irrelevant. Yes, the information is retained PENDING A GODDAMN WARRANT!
$1:
A lot of people will not do that. A lot of people will reveal things online, because there is an audience and the information will get exposed, where crimestoppers not so much. Without the guarantee of privacy we will have fewer of these people.
I don't care for your generalizations about the public, I think your perspective is skewed, flawed and wrong. And if it cuts down on whackos like you gumming up the internet, then this law is long overdue.
$1:
If you are posting on a forum, you are saying they can learn the ISP, but can they without a warrant ask for a persons name, email, home address, phone, and cellphone info, without a warrant? Please answer this.
The police can get from the ISP all of that. Did you read R v. Plant or just have "a quick gander"?
$1:
I did have a quick gander,
Oh, I thought so.
$1:
they used external information to find out what was going on in his home. I get that they can do that now, but this goes a step further. When it said that they ascertained his address, there was nothing to indicate they had used this method, unless I am mistaken. I thought the tip from the person contained the info.
Your quick gander failed you, oddly enough. The point of posting R v. Plant was for you to read the 4 prong test the Supreme Court uses to identify potential breaches of a person's S. 8 rights.
$1:
Too many of them abuse the current structure. Many will abuse this new structure. Seeing a post they don't like online, or someone who argues with them in a forum, and then using their power and abusing it. There are stories of abuse every day in the news.
Oh, is there stories like this every day in the news? Show me where the police have abused their current power to get telephone subscriber information, since that's the parallel to the new power currently being discussed.
Go on! Use your wonky websites if you have to.
$1:
If someone has an insulting sign on their bag, they would have to follow that person to get their info, that is the difference. If someone posts a not nice message, they will be able to go after this person a lot easier, that is the difference, and the potential for abuses.
I said car, not bag in my example. Why did you have to alter the substance of my example? Could you not think of a rational explanation as to the fundamental difference between querying a licence plate on a vengeful hunch and querying an ISP on same premise?
Another failure. Sigh.

Read Section 492.1 of the Criminal Code. It requires a warrant to get the above done. Wasn't that your beef? I'll highlight the relevant part for you. Currently, tracking warrants require you to install something, which preloaded software on phones already have. The police aren't installing anything. However, under S 492.2, they can use a Number Recorder Warrant to locate the physical location of a telephone, but that's not the spirit of the warrant. This actually makes the law make sense. That will upset you.
$1:
I stated this has been done before in the states with a mob boss, they had the ISP download software unto his computer. I don't think I said that this could be done without a warrant, just that this will make it easier and broader based to do or perform this function.
Again, that's the States and I don't care. Your whole point is that the warrantless powers of the police should be curtailed. This requires a warrant. You fail.
$1:
And there are some who will tell the people to sleep, and who refuse to see the potential for abuse.
Really? Do you look at both sides for the potential of abuse? What about the person who's luring a child on the internet, but thanks to bleeding dummies like you, the police have to get a warrant to find out who is doing it? Wow, way to stick up for the pedophiles!
