One safety system that I have just come across is vuyou.com They have created the worlds first FREE video email service and they say that when a video email is sent out their system will capture several snapshots of the one sending the video email and forward it on to the recipient, so that the sender cannot hide who they are, ingenious I thought!I used their service a few times to send a video email, and was impressed at how easy it was, I clicked, record, said what I wanted to say, then hit stop added the email address and it was off.We should have more services like this video email so that users can't hide who they are, VuYou.com have done a great job here!Terry Wed 16 Jul 2008 21:47:44 GMT+1 cosmicronson http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/technology/2008/04/what_kind_of_net_do_we_want.html?page=12#comment3 Every door has a key.

I would rather have 10 million viruses than 10 'Corporate Internets'.

We are all equal on the net.Recasting it as a shopping mall on your desktop, a collection of 'paid for services', with ISPs as gatekeepers, reduces it to the status of a TV shopping channel.
