I understand your comment, and I agree that there have been plenty of examples of lawmakers misunderstanding technology, but this isn't really an issue that's unique to technology. Lawmakers vote on bills on dozens of extremely complex subjects, ranging from agriculture to foreign policy. No single person could have a deep understanding of all the issues that come up in Congress. I don't think that cybersecurity is any more complicated than health care economics or agricultural subsidies.
It's just the nature of trying to govern an incredibly complicated country.
