Re: FTC Spyware Workshop: 1st Impressions
I guess so, although frankly it sounds disingenuous. I mean, many Internet transactions are already taxed (e.g. whenever your vendor has a local presence); and there are already plenty of massive databases of our buying habits -- they're called credit agencies; and as far as I understand (which is not a lot) it's up to the individual vendors to handle the bookkeeping.... It really just sounds as if he was playing to his audience there...

| The reason Commissioner Swindle is not Congressman Swindle is that he calls'em as he sees them.
His refusal to pander to special interest concerns doomed his political (elected) career.
Betcha didn't know that when he ran for Congress someone cybersat his name. He is still a little hissed off over that. That's the type of expierience & oversite I like to see in that position of authority.
