Why
What I wanted to say though was that this can be looked at in light of the probable outcome of the 'Can the government *require* you to purchase health insurance? My guess is that the answer will be NO. Can the government legally *require* you make your site "wiretap-friendly"? If it's in the Constitution that Congress has jurisdiction over interstate commerce; it's also in the Constitution that 'The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.' It would seem that the government CANNOT *legally* REQUIRE you to do this -- even MORE than it cannot REQUIRE you to purchase health insurance (assuming that's the outcome of the Obamacare case). Like wiretaps, the government should have to do this on a case-by-case basis. Freedom should be the default condition, not just what's left over.
