| Re: O M F G Not all people from Kentucky or living in Kentucky are cretins or brain-dead imbeciles, only a small percentage called politicians fit that category on a regular basis.Naturally there will be exceptions to that broad generalization. This does sound like something that some fundamentalist Bible-thumping hypocrite would sponsor though! Kentucky has a lot of wonderful people mixed in with the racists, bigots and hate mongers as well as technology challenged and tech-savvy people.

Everyone should use the name "Tim Couch." Among other details that would be pertinent to enforcing said law:
Mailing Address

Hyden KY 41749
Frankfort Address(es)

Annex Room 432B
Frankfort KY 40601
Phone Number(s)

All of this comes straight from a Kentucky State Government website.

| good luck Best of luck fining all the spammers, scammers, and ID thieves... Personally I would think that those types of things are a lot worse than the droves of anonymous id10ts out there posting their anonymous words...
Definition of posting = ??? an email? a blog comment? a link with no description? a web page and/or site? ...on that last note, what about 'domains by proxy' and other such services? sure they have to give out the info when lawfully required, but what would this sort of proposed idea do?
This sounds like a can of spam that this lawmaker simply shouldn't try to open. | |

| Re: Why Not? Despite the fact that it is unconstitutional (the Supreme Court has already upheld the right to post anonymously on the Internet in other cases) and that it is unenforceable (how will Kentucky punish a site based in Canada for allowing a user likely from Australia to post anonymously), this has all the marks of a law intended for selective enforcement. Meaning that it wouldn't be enforced at all until you found a site that you didn't like and then you would find a way to apply it to them.
For example, one of the Slashdot comments on this article pointed out KentuckyVotes.org. Apparently, they put the Kentucky legislature's bills online and let people search through them and comment on them. Some legislators don't like this. (Why should the people have access to voting records or be able to comment on bills? Who do they think they are?) So this site could either be fined for allowing anonymous individuals to post or be forced to give up personally identifying information on posters whose opinions irk the legislators.

And this just in also, another Senator wants to give away money that is not there, and oil went up again for price per barrel.

| And just how could this be enforced? Ok for starters, if they succeed (and thats a damn big IF) they would only be able to enforce it on one of two entities; those posting in Kentucky or those posting a site in Kentucky. The second part can easily be handled but ummm how are they going to determine the first? After all isn't part of being anonymous to NOT disclose your location? So just how do they plan to target those that live in Kentucky?
And before you say it, I know the policing is going to fall on the server operators and they will just go after them. But my point still stands, they will only be able to enforce it for sites hosted in Kentucky. They can't honestly expect DSLR to abide by Kentucky laws when they are hosted in NYC? | |
