  That's how I read it as well. Peter Sunde (Pirate Bay founder) has made similar statements about improving copyright: (paraphrasing) All the technical workarounds in the world don't change the fact that certain actions remain illegal, and the only thing that can change that is politics and law. If you don't want to have to wear facepoint and glasses made of special materials, and clothes with specially designed patches, then write to your local politician to push for regulation of public surveillance.
