- tptacek 14y agoThen Leahy is directly lying in his statement, which says he never supported that language. The language CNet reported on is also out of character for Leahy, and Leahy has ECPA amendment language ready that kills the 180-day rule for email. It doesn't add up.
- swohns 14y agoThis does seem remarkably out of character for Leahy, perhaps the draft language was from the the committee general. I am giving him the benefit of the doubt since he is such a Batman supporter.
