(From The Associated Press -- By Declan McCullagh)
Annoying someone via the Internet is now a federal crime.
It's no joke.
Last Thursday, PRESIDENT BUSH signed into law a prohibition on posting annoying Web messages or sending annoying email messages without disclosing your true identity.
In other words, it's OK to flame someone on a mailing list or in a blog as long as you do it under your real name.
Thank Congress for small favors, I guess.
Create An E-Annoyance, Go To Jail
Scott O'Leary, thanks for the post.
