Notice:From yorktown on Raging Bull site...
On Tuesday, March 23, 1999 the US Senate introduced Bill S.692. Designed to prohibit gambling on the Internet, it will allow the government to:
a) MONITOR your activity on the Internet at any time (for no reason). b) have your ISP CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT, disconnecting you from the Internet. This is done WITHOUT any notice to you.
Verify this for yourself. Read the Bill before the Senate: thomas.loc.gov (Enter "S692" where it says "By Bill Number" and read the FULL DISPLAY) or thomas.loc.gov
At the US Senate hearing, many people and organizations tried to stop the bill, asking to testify before the Senate Committee. Senator Jon Kyl (R-AZ), the committee chair, kept them out of this closed hearing.
Verify this for yourself. Read the March 30th New York Time article: nytimes.com Also read the March 31st Washington Post article: search.washingtonpost.com
***The Senate will meet on April 15, 1999 to possibly vote on the bill. We do not have much time left to protect our rights; YOUR civil rights and YOUR right to privacy.****
E-mail each of your Senators (or all of them - listed below). Tell them you oppose this bill (Bill S.692) and you value your rights to privacy on the Internet.
Also, E-MAIL THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW. Tell them to verify for themselves that this IS true and real.
The Internet is for everybody. This bill violates your rights to privacy & freedom. Lets stop the US Government from monitoring its citizens & keep them from telling us who can and cannotuse the Internet.
