The legislation being introduced at 10:30 am will restrict selling mailing lists with childrens' names and other identifying info on them, including email lists. Another attempt to regulate the net, or a good thing?

Whoops. I should have said the press conference happened at 10:30 am. The bill will be introduced in both houses later this week. Interesting press conference. Enough is Enough! took quite a bit of time to rant about the dangers of the Internet. Pedophiles, chat rooms, illegal pornography. You get the idea. Did you know May 20-26 is "Safe Cyber Week?" -Declan
