Marcus Caelius Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 (edited) Uh guys? I took a look at the first page of the thread this was posted on. It's all complete BS. Who proposed it? What is its designation (all bills are given "names," such as "Senate Bill S-1234")? Where was this reported (newspaper, etc)? Also, "...as quoted in an article on Wired News "? Where's the link? Why aren't there any links at all in the OP? I just took a look at the front page of Wired News, and guess which Really Important Story That Should Be All Over The Internet isn't there? You know, the article that was quoted? Where is it? Relax. I just looked, and the sky is not falling. BTW: The top story on Wired is that New Mexico is designating Pluto a planet. Yawn.

Lost_Warrior Posted March 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 The link to the Wired News article is in a following post. It's somewhere on the first page. I do hope you're right though. I hope it's complete bullocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Caelius Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 I do hope you're right though. I hope it's complete bullocks. Unfortunately, it's not. I did some more digging around, looking for a trustworthy independent source, and I found one . However, the sky is still firmly in place. Down toward the end of the article, it is apparent that the law is aimed at sites that require personal profiles for membership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost_Warrior Posted March 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Thanks for that bit of info, that does clear some things up (and allays my own fears about the fate of my message board). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost_Warrior Posted March 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 I actually just realized that the bill linked in my post above (post #12) isn't even the same bill we're talking about. That's what I get for not looking fully at a link before I post it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
