Kansas Senator (Brownback) Blasts Chinese Government For Ordering Internet Surveillance - Brownback must be concerned about China competing with the US when it comes to spying on it's own citizens.

 
Paper Catalog + Computer Database = Patent? Um, No.

 
Senators Announce New Intellectual Property Enforcement Bill - Why??? Enforcement of civil law is traditionally (and best) left to the harmed party or parties. Is DOJ prepared to force the FBI to start investigating copyright infringement (again) despite the fact such frivolous issues would steal resources away from much more pressing matters? I do not think that anyone could possibly want this bill to pass other than special interests in Hollywood.

WEIS 2008: Do data-breach-disclosure laws reduce identity theft?

Air Force Cyber Command: Building the Infrastructure for High-Tech War Crimes - I am unashamedly liberal (in the Thomas Paine/Adam Smith way, not the nanny-state sort of way) but even I have to say that the author must be off his meds. Mr. Burghardt apparently thinks that it is better to engage an opponent with bombs and bullets than bits and bytes. If information warfare and operations (IW/IO) means fewer casualties of war, I am all for it. Numerous nations are already involved in non-stop, slow simmering information-based adversarialism. To not develop capabilities in this space would be to surrender the battleground. That said, it is important to ensure that the actions of the AFCC comply with the Constitution as well as the laws of the US, the States, and any applicable international agreements. To that end, I fully support the intent of the author. Democracy is noisy and loud and it means having to put up with all sorts of crackpot theories from both the left and the right.
