The providers have warned the National Council of Provinces (NCOP) – Parliament's upper chamber – that planned amendments to the Regulation of Interception of Communication and Provision of Communication-related Information Act (RICA), if enacted, result in the blanket switch-off of international roaming facilities to all foreign visitors.

Is this is an excellent idea which will completely eradicate crime.... or perhaps not.

Where to begin?
