Well, I always thought of Bush as the guy who drove around in a tank shootin' stuff, just signing away any documents given to him so he could continue shootin' stuff.

Actually, If you read the actual bill, it banned the use of the internet to "annoy" a person.

I shit you not.

Annoy a person? A. isn't that very subjective? B. isn't that what the internet is for? C. if not that, isn't that what it's used for? D. Isn't that almost impossible to enforce? E. Boy, I'm screwed, aren't I?

This is probably one of the stupidest things you can ever do. Trying to make a law you can't enforce only demotes you in the public eye.

Too bad being an asshole is still not only legal, but encouraged..

Hey guys! It's now cool to use your real name on the interwebs when being a flaming asshole.

H34R M3!1!11 1 4/\/\ L33T F1TZG3R4LD N J00 ALL SUXX0R.

...Wait... does that mean l33t speak is now illegal? After all, "l33t f1tzg3r4ld" =/= "Lee Fitzgerald"... Hmm...

Ya gotta wonder just how they would plan to enforce it, though. There's no way WHATSOEVER to get personal info on the anonymous spammer legally, and ESPECIALLY not if they're 12-or-under (Those kids get absolute immunity from this law, since it's illegal for websites to ask personal info from folks of that age group. Lucky bastards). It's like ROM legality; Threaten all you like, but without spending a LOT of money, using illegal methods, or being psychic and able to PROVE it, you really can't do shit to the individual perpetrator...

I once went to a website and it was able to track my location.

Hide me. I'm scared.

And I thought he couldn't do anything more stupid. Guess he showed me huh? What's next, a law making it so you must type EVERYTHING with perfect spelling and grammer?

Of course not! Then Mr. Bush would have to spell stuff right, which we know he can't do.

Also, crap, now I'm a criminal. America is starting to suck. Who wants to move to Japan and hang out with the robots with me?

I know there's ways to do it. You can do anything on the internet if you know how. The trick is keeping it legal.

Yes, I don't know of any specific legal definition of "annoy" and I have high doubts that the lawyers or judges have such a definition, either.

Not anymore.

Apparently it is a government mind-control device.

Yes.

Not really (see above). I find it unlikely that anyone would take you to court if you called them a n00b h4x0r. And even if they did, I doubt they'd win the case

Plus, all you have to do is change the way you annoy. The law only bans ANONYMOUSLY annoying someone. Theoretically, I could call you a stupid smacktard, as long as I tell you that my name is Jason. So now you are annoyed, but you don't have a legal case against me.

By the way, please don't take me to court. I am not calling you a stupid smacktard. That was just hypothetical. Of course, my name is Jason, so you can go screw yourself either way.
