Actually no,  a whole US senate committee sent them a letter about it.

That first guy was a different case.

i believe we're actually talking about the same person, mary bono mack. she is chairman in a subcommittee, but as far as ive seen the committee hasnt moved on sony, only mary and one other person.

mary bono mack is my representative (one of californias reps) and she has pretty much just been sensationalizing the event, like any other media.

she was just scheduled (on may 4th) to put forward a bill related to this (though i think it was actually about cell phones).

she just wants her legislation passed

send me a link to what youre talking about if you still think were talking about a different person

Mary Bono would prove the more then one person.

Then it's already more then "one congressmen" as there was Jay Blumenthal as well... he was the first one who i thought you meant.

Also John D Rockefeller of W. Virginia.

Bobby Rush - D

None of these actually being what I was talking about either... but just stuff that showed up as i tried to work backwords through google news.

 

Which, is more then enough to prove the point... because i've only gone back 6 days... while this was weeks ago.


so your point is that more than one representative cares about this?

my point is that its being sensationalized so people can get things done that wouldnt otherwise be done.

btw the two articles that you mentioned are actually people who are trying to get their bills passed, the guy in first one is pushing an alternative to bono macks, while the second one is bono macks. theyre using this as leverage to get their bills passed (which are likely not going to be passed anyways)

Except you know... this happens a lot... and they don't go after most companies.

I don't see your point... that senators who think companies who are cavalier with peoples personal information want to pass bills that are harder on irresponsible companies?
