I would equate it to mandating GPS be installed on all new cars for car makers to track.
This bill treats all internet users with suspicion of criminal activity the same way that the TSA assumes everyone might be a threat. It's a minor inconvenience and invasion to many innocent in order to better prosecute the few guilty.
Along the same "slippery slope", it could be argued that the government would do a better job stopping domestic violence by installing cameras in everyone's home. Sure, you're not treated as a criminal, just as someone who could at any moment do criminal things.
