The previous UK law, RIPA, was abused for investigating minor crimes such as fraudulently obtaining disabled parking badges. It's not just about national governments but local municipal authorities too. Yes I would prefer another jurisdiction but it's way better than the status quo whereby the browsing history is just handed over.

I understand that you're trying to illustrate a larger problem, but that example is likely to get you zero sympathy from anybody, anywhere. I know that US ISPs have an established pattern of "just handing over" browsing history, but I have no idea what CF's track record is like.
