[Ecommerce] California Legislators Pass Identity Information Protection Act

[Jeff Williams]

All,

(19 May 2005)
On May 16, the California Senate passed SB 682, the Identity
Information Protection Act, which prohibits the use of radio frequency
identification (RFID) tags in state and federal government-issued
identification cards.  The law would also make it illegal to read or
attempt to read identification documents without the owner's knowledge.
The bill now moves to the state assembly.

"If the probability be called P; the injury, L; and the burden, B;
liability depends upon whether B is less than L multiplied by
P: i.e., whether B is less than PL."
