The "Deleting Online Predators Act" or DOPA for short was passed yesterday by the House by a vote of 410-15. The purpose of this bill is to protect children from the scourge of online predators. On its face, it is an admirable goal - but as they say, "the devil is in the details." To understand why, follow me over the flip.
(Note: this issue was diaried by Felix and waitfortheword on Wednesday, but received little fanfare; both diaries are excellent.)
