What I don't understand, or what I can only guess at, is the cabal & likely global network of interests that are behind the push for this kind of legislation to exists in the first place.

Some delusional "save the children" anti-privacy extremist doesn't have the political capital or the technical insight to convince the government to create a law to issue secret gag orders.

People with good civil intention don't just propose the idea, or get the momentum, to institutionalize such mechanisms.

So who are the major influencers, and their thoughts, for pushing this?
