Is this a hoax? I'm praying it is. According to this article the U.S. Department of Justice is going to argue that it should be given powers to prosecute violations of "Terms of Service" of any website on the net. They complain that withholding these powers from the DoJ often jeopardize prosecutions involving identity theft, misuse of government databases, and privacy invasions.
Of course, since EVERYBODY lies on the internet, then under that logic it would be considered a felony to lie about your weight and age on a website like Match.com, or use a pseudonym on Facebook. Bwuh??

PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
