Calling all Legal Eagles...

Please review these proposed changes to US Code, Title 18, regarding Cyber-Security Enhancement and Consumer Data Protection Act of 2006.

We need to make sure that this bill is correct, and stands without any weird and strange riders...

One of my first questions is Section 2 E:
`(E) the capability to gain access to or remotely control without authorization, a protected computer.'.

Who is defining this, and how exactly is "access" defined?

If this can pass, it may bring protections to our personal data... however, I'd much prefer to see the existing Privacy Act of 1974 expanded to all businesses and consumers.

That's my 2¢, YMMV.
