Quite, I haven't got a clue on all the ins and outs, and I'm relatively clued up compared with most people I know. I've seen a lot of lobbying from google and co saying it shouldn't pass.

That's why I vote for people who can spend a lot of time looking at it and voting for or against it in parliament.

As it happens my preferred grouping were pretty much split evenly, there's certainly pros and cons.
