Drunk Driving on the Internet?! - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

An article by John Dvorak in this months April 2008 issue of PC Computing magazine described a bill going through Congress that would make it illegal to use the internet while drunk, or to discuss sexual matters over a public network. The bill is numbered 040194 (i.e. 04/01/08), and the contact person is listed as Lirpa Sloof.

The article said that the FBI was going to use the bill to tap the phone line of anyone who "uses or abuses alcohol" while accessing the internet. Passage of the bill is felt to be certain because "Who wants to come out and support drunkenness and computer sex?" The article offers this explanation for the origin of the bill: "The moniker 'Information Highway' itself seems to be responsible for SB 040194... I know how silly this sounds, but Congress apparently thinks being drunk on a highway is bad no matter what kind of highway it is.
