ISPs are being notified that the federal government may soon pass legislation requiring them to keep logs of email, web and other information on their user base, perhaps for as long as several months.
Currently, few ISP's keep more than a few days worth of information before discarding it, and what is gathered/evaluated is usually performance and troubleshooting related.
This marks a major reversal of previous policy statements.
