South Korea Wants To Mandate Everyone Must Install 'Security' Software
To Prevent 'Zombies'

http://j.mp/e6dfVH  (techdirt)

     The Korean government will officially designate which security
     solutions are allowed, leading to questions about what might be in or
     not be in such software. On top of that, this law also has quite a
     backdoor for government agencies to spy on pretty much any company,
     because it would empower the Korean Communications Commission to
     "examine the details of the business, records, documents and others"
     of anyone, without a warrant, based merely on the suspicion that an
     employee or the company as a whole did not use such mandated security
     software.
