That is the only logical conclusion, if their term networked is not
otherwise defined.

Why, yes it does. The Bush fascists here would have thought of it
first, but I guess it must be assumed they're already doing it, so
they don't care.

  From the article:
  The proposed laws would allow police to search computers networked to those
  listed on a search warrant.   Police could also seize computer hard drives
  and memory sticks for up to seven days.   Police Minister David Campbell
  says police are currently only able to search computer hardware found on a
  premises named in a search warrant.

  From that snippet it not only sounds as if they can search computers on
  local networks, as in, in the same office space for example but also any
  computers networked anywhere.  Doesn't this mean if they get one warrant for
  a computer connected to the net, any computer in the entire country on the

the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that 
stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, 
severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

2: a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial 
control early instances of army fascism and brutality ­ J. W. Aldridge


does not seem to me to be tou\o tough a shoe to fit.

fascist: a person who is dictatorial or has extreme right-wing views.

*You* might want to look it up before accusing _me_ of cracking a
party joke about the Bush regime. It may have had a different meaning
in the past, but in a living language word meanings change all the
time.

That is a definition left up to the user's choice then, since the user  
will define who is dictatorial or who's views are extreme and right- 
wing.


By making this defense it strikes me that you are in the Humpty Dumpty  
class of linguists.


'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone,'  
it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.'


'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so  
many different things.'


'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master - that's  
all.'

Wow. I thought that getting rid of the Howard government broke the CIA's 
30+ year grip on Australia's government. I was hopeful--but mistaken. 
Too bad.
