Rest assured, converting from analogue to digital will be very

Another reason is that digital will allow Big Brother to monitor,
intercept and control program content. Ultimately, all broadcasting
and the news media will be propagated via the Internet. Amateur radio,
which is difficult to monitor by the authorities, will eventually be
abolished. The BBC is doing its utmost, under Blair's Goverment
instructions, to transfer itself to the Internet which, of course, is
all digital.

Already, all data transmitted over the internet can be monitored by
MI5, MI6 and the CIA just by some unknown person sitting in his office
armchair and dialling your phone number. And giant computers
continuously analyse internet traffic looking for key-words.

You have been warned. But there's nothing you can do about it.
