Spyware Vote in the Congress

I originally wrote this entry on September 22, 2004, and published it on blogs.sun.com.


The U.S. House of Representatives is expected to vote next week on a measure to crack down on spyware. (The relevant bills originally took shape in the Commmittee on Energy and Commerce.)


Reuters reports the measure has wide support.


I've not been able to find and read any of the two proposed bills (which are supposed to be merged by the powerful Committee on Rules) but I'm wondering about their scope and how severe the punishement will be for the offenders.
