And DUMBEST-MEN-IN-CONGRESS Award Goes To…

Un-stinking-believable the latest initiatives in the U. S. Congress, reported by the U.K.Register (read the whole story here).

1. Senator Marc Warner (D-VA) wants to pass laws ensuring that companies do not keep sensitive data that they no longer need; and
2. Reps. Jim Langevin (D-RI) and Glenn Thompson (R-PA) would create a new Department of Education grant program focused on training students in the basics of infosec.

Heaven forbid we should let licensed and bonded cyber privateers (see my Cyber Privateering code here) REALLY stop the bad guys.

Way to go, schmucks!
