Government to the Rescue - Only Friends Can Annoy
If this law is interpreted literally...and enforced, then our "Troll List" can be eliminated and we'll never hear from Meatbrain again.
Annoying someone via the Internet is now a federal crime.It's no joke. Last Thursday, President Bush signed into law a prohibition on posting annoying Web messages or sending annoying e-mail messages without disclosing your true identity.
What's annoying? Read the article and tell me. Maybe, it's just any comment from a liberal...but, then that's how we get our laughs, too. This could be difficult.

As I have HaloScan I banned him and deleted his rude and obnoxious comments. So he went to someone elses blog and commented the same way, using my name!
I had never been to the blog he went to before, so I would never have found out about it if one of my blogging friends had not come to my blog and told me. He used my name without my permissiion. But how do I proceed with catching him?
