Police have been going into chat rooms under cover for a while now, to try and keep an eye out for potential paedophiles and other chat room related idiocy. You lost your 'privacy' a long time ago so far as chat rooms are concerned -- not that you had any in the first place...

The internet never was a private thing, anyone can watch what you are doing. Get over it. I bet if terrorist do use the computer to communicate, they use I-M's or e-mail.

Err is this going to help? stop the terrorists? NO
The terrorists won't meet in public chatrooms, they rather meet on private chatrooms/forums or other comunication systems. The terrorists won't post their plans on the net, maybe just come in to contact (and then using some nobish l33t style as posted above) and meet face to face or via some other communication system to speak anout the details (what about the go 'oll hand written letter? Or are they screening every letter that is send (either national or international) too?
They won't catch or stop terrorists with this, and besides if this would scare terrorists (it won't) won't they move to foreign forums that does not accept the CIA spying in their country (holland for example probly does allow CIA spying on dutch territory/servers ) (where the CIA can't spy upon them , not legally anyway).
This measure only hurts the civs not the terrorists if you ask me.
Ehh, well lets see, it is very wrong for them to be doing that, but if you arent doing anything illegal...then why are you worrying?
That is just an excuse. It is a common conservative concern that the US is rapidly becoming a police state capable of suspending people's personal liberties. Why not listen to our anti-Bush conservative counterparts?
