I found this on the net. http://www.stoppoliceware.org/ If this happens, what will it mean, and how far will it go?

Just realized thhere is a debate forum. Thought this may be important to the forum.

Well my 1st impression is that this is a joke. Surely it must be?

Go to this site "http://www.the-cad.com/" and read down to the relevant post.

it's a hoax. you'll notice there is no senate bill number. it just attempts to push your paranoia button. just like the "tax on email" hoax.

LOL, just keep using your old PC to burn CDs. What about policeware on guns? LMAO Maxx

what about building your own system

This is no hoax. But if it goes through is another question.

Ups, got to C&D.

Just a note, nothing remotely similar to the title of this bill has been introduced into either the Senate or the House during the 107th Congress. A search of the Library of Congress' legislative information site (see link) on Security Systems Standards and Certification Act returns 0 bills containing your phrase exactly as entered, 0 bills containing all your search words near each other in any order, 50 bills containing all your search words but not near each other, 0 bills containing one or more of your search words. This doesn't mean that the bill hasn't been drafted, it means that it hasn't been introduced yet. It doesn't appear to be on the Senate calendar for any time soon, nor the Commerce Committee's calendar. It could be real, but it seems to be a lot of male bovine fecal matter to me.
