the problem is, what is an act of terrorism?
what if i'm accused of breaking into a bank electronically? is that terrorism? they're trying to make it so, i promise you that. and if someone does a good job spoofing this attack from my address, can i be whisked away and tried in some "military tribunal"?
what if, NBN, someone didn't like you... and they somehow got into your home (it isn't hard, you know) and planted material relating to bombs, airplane blueprints, airport security material and a manifesto of how to hijack a plane? and then got an anonymous tip about how "this nothing but net guy has been talking about how to watch the news in 3 weeks, and we'll be sorry that we pissed him off"... would you be singing the same tune if you were quietly whisked off and tried in a military tribunal and sentenced to five, ten, or even LIFE in prison? would you think it was such a great idea then?
