Oddly I can't find any other sources reporting this. I'd have expected it to show up in at least one other place else (e.g. BBC news for example).
I'm not trying to imply that it's not accurate, I'm just confused by the lack of info. And the article doesn't really reference anything other than other zdnet articles, so it's really hard to tell exactly what form of the act got passed - did all the really controversial stuff actually make it in?

- karmacoda 10y agoThe BBC is dodgy. That might sound like blasphemy, but year after year I'm increasingly aware of blatant bias, omissions, misrepresentations. The BBC is not to be trusted.
