  Annoying someone = Jail time
No shit!

Idiot law #3402

Annoying someone on the internet (weblogs, e-mails, websites, usenet, everything!) without providing your true identity is now a federal crime. Yep, only in the US!....read about it here.

The part that amazes me the most that the law itself actually uses the word annoy.

"Whoever...utilizes any device or software that can be used to originate telecommunications or other types of communications that are transmitted, in whole or in part, by the Internet... without disclosing his identity and with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any person...who receives the communications...shall be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than two years, or both."

Which proves once again that lawmakers are no more intelligent then the people who pack your groceries. Seriously, how are they going to define annoyance? I mean, I'm annoyed on the daily just by surfing Blog Explosion. Hell, I probably annoy the shit out of some of you bitches too! Am I committing a crime now? What a steaming pile of horseshit this law represents! You probably already guessed that you have a Republican't to thank for this. Say thank you! Idiots.

Anyway, read the source.

Oh yeah, and I better sign this with my true identity before someone gets "annoyed" by this..

Yours truly,

SUCK MY NUTS!

"Atheism is more than just the knowledge that Gods does not exist, and that religion is either a mistake or a fraud. Atheism is an attitude, a frame of mind that looks at the world objectively, fearlessly, always trying to understand all things as a part of nature" - Carl Sagan
