(Sec 21.f) (in 1996 the U.S. Secret Service told a judge I was "dangerous" because I possessed listings of radio frequencies.) there also seems to be several other unconstitutional items in this bill: http://www.leg.state.nv.us/72nd/bills/AB/AB441_R2.html -bernieS "CALEA's first casualty" ------------------------------------------------------------------------- POLITECH -- Declan McCullagh's politics and technology mailing list You may redistribute this message freely if you include this notice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe to Politech: http://www.politechbot.com/info/subscribe.html This message is archived at http://www.politechbot.com/ Declan McCullagh's photographs are at http://www.mccullagh.org/ Like Politech?
