“Create an e-annoyance, go to jail”

Since this here site has been known to be an annoyance to some, I thought it important to post this bit of mind-numbingly disturbing news about our folks in Washington. Apparently, Congress has just passed, with the President’s signature, a new bill that makes it a crime to create anonymous Internet communications with the intent to “annoy” (among other verbs like harass). I’m not sure what disturbs me more, this news or the fact that the #1 movie over the weekend was the gratuitous torture movie “Hostel.”

  1. So you’re saying that my new website “www.I’m-not-touching-you.com” may be illegal? Damn, and here I thought it would be fun, a program that just whines over and over, “I’m not touching you. I’m not touching you, I’m not touching you.”

  2. I guess this does not include SPAM, which, though anonymous and highly annoying, is not created “with the intent to ‘annoy'”.
