I don't see this as a good thing. I would say that I declare (my admittedly insignificant) vote of no confidence in both any government and in corporations. When I look at the legislation passed in my lifetime, it's enraging. Laws are passed specifically to entrench a surveillance based police state.
While it does appear that some legislation is outdated, I would rather it stay, since I can only foresee it being replaced with a bill porkbarreled to the point of bursting with surveillance measures, anti-consumer, anti-encryption, anti-privacy clauses. The governments of today are cartels, plain and simple. Enhanced cooperation between thugs with lots of money is not exactly comforting.
The Alliance of Conservative Dinosaurs (read: the GOP) seems dead set on rescinding my liberties. I'd rather they be frustrated by antiquated legislation than surrender more freedoms under the false flag of security.
