These laws are not just "proposed", but a reality in Delaware, Illinois, Michigan, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Wyoming and by now is law in Arkansas (it was sitting on the governor's desk two weeks ago and he hadn't signed it, but becomes law after so many days anyway). Coming soon to a state near you - Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Tennessee and Texas! You can throw your Nat'ing firewalls, Honey Pots, routers and internet connection sharing out the window folks! Act now in those states before it is too late.
