Comment Why.. ? (Score 1) 911

If I blow a .04, I am still legally allowed to operate a vehicle. Even if I have had a prior DUI. Why am I now restricted from operating my vehicle in a legal manner? It's not like they are changing the law to say that everyone who has had a DUI now had a reduced BAC tolerance.

Your "problem" has already been solved. Encrypt the hard drive. Companies don't care about losing sensitive data other than the monetary and reputation loss. If you lose a hard drive with private info on it, you only have to report a "breach" if it's encrypted.

Somebody with physical access can just use a boot CD and do what they want anyways.
