Congress Proposes Data Breach Disclosure Bill

segphault writes "A new data breach disclosure bill proposed by Senator Sensenbrenner (the same politician that sponsored the infamous Real ID Act) requires companies to inform federal law enforcement agencies if a database containing information on more than 10,000 citizens is infiltrated by hackers. The punishments for failing to disclose information about data breaches to federal law enforcement agents under this new bill include jail time and massive fines. Although this bill requires disclosure to the government, it does not require companies to inform the victims of data theft. Furthermore, it allows federal law enforcement agencies to prevent companies from voluntarily disclosing information about breaches to the public, even if the companies are required to do so by state laws. This law could potentially allow companies to circumvent and undermine state laws designed to protect consumers from identity theft."

hey fuckface, if you don't want my second hand smoke, go to a non-smoking establishment. If you don't like gay niggers, don't move to their neighborhood and complain about it. Get the fuck off my hershey highway and sit your swollen ass somewhere where you feel comfortable. Majority prefference should not become law. Most people don't like nigger cock up their ass, but that doesn't mean they have the right to make it illegal. Go fuck yourself, you nerd loser piece of shit. Better yet, post your address here, so I can come over and beat the fuck out of your nerd ass. And your mom's ass, whose basement you're destined to live out your days in. Fuck you, you stupid piece of shit. People like you should be shot point-blank in the head. Care to post your whereabouts so I can put you out of your misery? You're a fucking waste of space. Die bitch.
