Because you actually need to RTFA.

This is linked in the article: http://copyright.gov/1201/2015...

Relevant section:

In comments submitted so far, automakers have expressed concern that allowing outsiders to access electronic control units that run critical vehicle functions like steering, throttle inputs and braking "leads to an imbalance by which the negative consequences far outweigh any suggested benefits," according to the Alliance of Global Automakers. In the worst cases, the organizations said an exemption for enthusiasts "leads to disastrous consequences."

You'll see "Global" in that quote mind you. But if you look at some of the organizations, they include companies like Honda, Nissan, Kia, Hyundai, Toyota, Volvo, etc. I'm gonna just chalk this up to anti-American bias.

In a living document, the interpretation does not or should not change. If something needs to change, then the document must be amended. Supreme Court decisions regarding the First Amendment will reference Jefferson's Statute here, because it had major influence on how the First Amendment was written, particularly the Establishment Clause. The Constitution is a holy document, that's the point of it. It is above the power of any single person. If a statute, law or, ruling contradicts the Constitution then the former is invalid. If you have a problem with the historical understanding of a portion of the Constitution you need to push for an amendment.

Here's a different one she may have broken, http://www.foxnews.com/politic...

Apparently, after leaving the the department you sign this form (http://www.gsa.gov/portal/forms/download/115326)

1. I have surrendered to responsible officials all classified or administratively controlled documents and material with which I was charged or which
I had in my possession, and I am not retaining in my possession, custody, or control, documents or material containing classified or administratively
controlled information furnished to me during the course of such employment or developed as a consequence thereof, including any diaries,
memorandums of conversation, or other documents of a personal nature that contain classified or administratively controlled information.
2. I have surrendered to responsible officials all unclassified documents and papers relating to the official business of the Government acquired by
me while in the employ of the Department or USIA.

If she signed that she lied and therefore essentially lied under oath.

6. I have been advised by the interviewing officer whose signature appears below and fully understand that Section 1001 of Title 18, United States
Code, provides criminal penalties for knowingly and willfully falsifying or concealing material fact in a statement or document submitted to any
department or agency of the United States Government concerning a matter under its jurisdiction.

Are you touched in the head? Seriously? Bush did it, so let's not worry. Wrong is wrong, Bush got away with it, fine. Let's not let another person get away with. Particularly, the person who called the Bush administration corrupt and full of cronyism over their email scandal (she did this in 2007 btw).

It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
