    I think you should realistically examine the probability of such a law doing anything more than expended tax dollars on its creation, implementation, and its future failed attempts at enforcement. It’s pork belly legislation designed to create even more unnecessary federal jobs.

    All previous attempts to legislate how computer users can use their computers has ended in dismal failure. It simply does not work.

    Too many people believe that legislators can make laws to do great things without understanding their impossibility.

    Legislators who introduce science or technology bills should be recalled for incompetence unless they actually hold a degree in any field in which they introduce legislation. The last thing the country needs is more bullshit laws like those in texas and california. Right wing/left wing, both places have a huge proportion of wingnut laws.

      i agree with most of this, but

      designed to create even more unnecessary federal jobs.

      naw. these people arent thinking like that. this is ‘save the children’ material for elections more than ‘job creation’. both are stupid, but i always hear this battle cry of ‘they want to create federal jobs’ when all the real money (pork as you call it) goes out via the military industrial complex, which no one ever seems to care exists or is the real problem with the united states.

      it is a war monger, ready with wares.
