UK: ACPO call for internet police: The chairman of the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO), Detective Chief Superintendent Keith Ackerman, has called for a national internet unit to be established to combat crime on the net. Describing the argument for a national unit as "persuasive", Ackerman said: "Personally, I think a national unit is definitely the way forward. But obviously, we have finite budgets and resources." His remarks followed a seminar between ACPO and internet service providers.
