Privacy mandates are bad news for web users
We read:
"When Congress returns from its summer recess, Internet privacy will be high on its agenda. Half a dozen bills introduced this session aim to address the privacy 'crisis' by imposing new regulations on businesses.
Amid this panicked flurry of legislative activity, lawmakers need to slow down and take a deep breath. While the state of Internet privacy today is far from perfect, federal meddling with the thriving online ecosystem will only hurt consumers."

I find it amusing that people still use the word privacy, since there's no longer any such thing. Whatever privacy people may think they have is nothing more than an illusion, and that too is quickly disappearing. The world is now filled with people, companies, and agencies, which know far more about you and the thing you do, than you yourself knows.
Make no mistake, the elected, lying crooks are not interested in anyone's privacy other than their own. What they're really after is some semi-rational excuse to tax every online transaction. The excuse is simply dressing for what they want to do. They know that generally speaking, the American people lack the brains, guts, and will to do anything about it other than whine and complain.
Believe me folks, this has NOTHING to do with Privacy, this is just a foot in the door to censorship and ultimately government control over the internet.
Can you say fairness doctrine?
Funny how they never seem to worry about these things when it comes to the MSM or newspapers, only places where conservatives dominate.
