Does anybody know of legal implications associated with this kind of
filtering ?  A lot of organisations now allow users to bank online via
the orgs internet infrastructure as it is benefical to both parties.

 If you are doing analysis on a mitm ssl stream you will potentially
collect every users banking credentials. Would you have to redirect
ssl connections to a web page that advises them of this ? I could see
that the banks would also like to be advised if you are planning to do
this and they more than likely will block access from organisations
partaking in this strategy.  Banks are just the primary example.
