All of the ISPs should get together and refuse to provide cell phone, home or business internet service to the **IAA, its member companies, their employees and outside lawyers.
And you are how many $millions poorer in order to fight for your obvious rights?
And the government lawyers starting and continuing these knowingly unconstitutional cases get disbarred, fined or sanctioned how often?
Power will get abused as long as there are no consequences to abusing that power.
Her disregard for THE LAW wasn’t casual. It was a conscious and involved scheme to avoid the Freedom of Information Act, and possibly also Obama Administration scrutiny of her actions. She put the nation as a whole at risk, along with individual lives of intelligence sources, for political reasons: to avoid accountability.
I thought Congress gave exclusive authority to regulate the communications spectrum and communications devices to the FCC. States have been trying to regulate some apps, but this bill mentions 'devices'.
... until a court says otherwise, and even then it won't always stop. Has no one learned anything from the past 15 years?
There are zero consequences to government overreach and abuses. People in power will abuse that power until they get thrown in jail or personally fined, which is never going to happen.
Any states getting hassled by the DHS/TSA should say that any and all DHS or TSA employees' drivers license are no longer valid in that state, no matter where they were issued.
Agreed. No rule, regulation, order or policy with the same teeth as a law should be enforceable unless passed in the same way as a law - elected officials should be required to put their names on the record, for or against.
It is NOT the SCOTUS' responsibility to strike down bad but constitutional laws. To do so would be judicial activism.
Congress is the culprit - they passed this special interest legislation and they should fix it.
"The majority of Ford’s phishing, hacking and cyberstalking activities were conducted from his computer at the U.S. Embassy in London."
For all we know the next Aldridge Ames is working in the London embassy. It's not like state department security is going to catch him.

The U.S. Navy has a ship-killing problem. The service has, over the past 25 years, neglected the basic mission to sink and destroy enemy ships. Now, with the Russian and Chinese navies on the horizon, the Navy is looking at ways of making its ships more lethal—by repurposing missiles as ship-killers.
It's always a minion that gets blamed and the punished. The prisoners are tortured at Abu Ghraib, and only the underlings go to jail. Their bosses knew. The bosses always know or should have known.
Nothing will change until top people like Brian Kemp or the former head of OPM are thrown into jail for years.

A truly bad idea. If VW's heart is not in it they will only do the minimum to keep the government off their back.

The CIA, working in coordination with U.S. troops, bought and destroyed hundreds of nerve agent rockets during the occupation of Iraq.

Hillary and wall street bankers in jail would be a start.

Firearms and Explosives => FBI
Alcohol and tobacco => FDA

NK is short on currency and demand for nukes is high in the middle east.
Have the device warn the user IF the device is in motion and having active inputs and getting close to an obstacle.
Yes, it's the fuel tax, aka a use tax or consumption tax. But this is not about consumption - it's about keeping another buggy-whip industry alive.
It's not security, it's security theater. The bad guys do not obey laws and they won't obey this one if it interferes with their goals.

" to KNOWINGLY subvert the Constitution." Where's the override! Where's the override?
Exactly. Government officials use code words ie procedures, policies, directives, NDAs as justifications to subvert the KNOWINGLYConstitution.
