Take your point completely but
1. What have you got to hide ? Personal financial information ? Sure its personal and confidential, but what you earn, how much tax you've paid (or not paid), what you have in your savings and checking accounts - all this can be found out in minutes. Illegal films / games / music ? Government couldn't give a shit about those. Porn ? Again, they couldn't care less unless its kiddie stuff.
2. What are you going to do about it. Any software you can buy to secure or encrypt your system can be easily bypassed.
Its like National ID cards. Everyone's going to have to have one. If you've done nothing wrong you've got nothing to worry about.

Guess you wouldnt have any problem with the police snooping around in your house then by that reasoning Lamp? After all you got nothing to hide anyways..
Afaik 'Extreme Porn' is porn where peoples lives, well being, health etc (something along those lines) are at risk. I mean, I just read it somewhere :|They can read all my emails, msn convos, which websites I visit, all my finincial infos etc.
They can arrest you if you have extreme porn on your computer? When did that become illegal? And what is extreme porn exactly? Everyone knows child pornography is illegal and should stay FAR FAR FAR away from that shit, but some people have wierd fetisches which might be considered extreme, by the law enforcers, because they don't share the same fetisches and thinks "wow, that shit is fucked up", and the person which possesses the porn can get fined or even jailed in extreme cases?
Stay away from peoples porn, as long as it's not illegal(children, necrophealia, killing etc)
IMO
Im guessing they are going to be targeting big torrent downloaders & possible pedos.
Besides, its not the fact they can do it, its what they do with the spyed info when they do. Information is power.
then they would be breaking the law...How do you know they've not already looked into your computer without you even knowing, completely bypassing your commercial firewall etc software ?

you dont,
but you'd also have to ponder what they'd have to gain from doing so, to random citizens, without some form of selection or profiling having taken place prior to such an intrusion.
everything that anyone dose is always driven by motive and potential gain.
