I think their intentions will be different than
Westergaard's. The presumed intent, of course,
is to just catch 'the bad guys' rather than to
'catch people with whom you disagree', which is
fine with me -- I'm all for that.

Westergaard's quote, by the way, "Truth is not
the issue." -- great line!

From a technical standpoint, I just don't see how
they can do it.

Taking your comment a little farther, I suppose
if they made too many 'false arrests', it would
deter some people from posting at all, which is
a sort of 'passive' censorship, and I agree with
you that this would be bad.
