Nephilium writes: News.com reports that a new bill has just passed the house (by a vote of 409-2) that "anyone offering an open Wi-Fi connection to the public must report illegal images including "obscene" cartoons and drawings — or face fines of up to $300,000." This was rushed through with no discussion, no public debate, and no hearings. But don't worry, the fine for a first offense is only $150,000.
