Suggested Predictions

ValleyWag picked up a story from WTVQ in Kentucky today on a bit of proposed legislation by State Representative Tim Couch that has designs to make illegal the ability to post anonymously to the internet. The bill requires anyone who contributes to a website to register their real name, address and email address on that site. Of course, the offender couldn't be very easily prosecuted since there would be no way to track the anonymous poster, but the website operator would be forced to make their site compliant or otherwise face a fine of $500 per each offending post.
Will this new bill be proposed and passed before July 2008? Do you like the ideas? inspired by this article: http://mashable.com/2008/...

But it's not like there is not a way authorities can track down someone if the info given is deemed illegal... have these law makers ever heard of something called an IP address? :p
