<title>Sidestepping Legislation</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20404789</link>
<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/618649"><b>Garius</b></A> : Why isn't there any legislation out there that can spot obvious "plots" by these companies that allow them to continue shoveling their crap all over people's systems?<br><br>I remember the old "define spyware" argument.  It had two goals:  stalling further legislation while a "definition" was written, and then allowing them to customize their spyware around the "definition" so that they couldn't legally be classified as spyware any more, EVEN THOUGH THEY STILL WERE.<br><br>Why is it that nobody can SEE through this kind of thing?  Why are kindergarten-level delay tactics that any parent would spot in under a second somehow beyond the comprehension of legislators?  Everybody knows what this crap is and nobody wants it on their systems.]]></description>
