Hat tip: To The People for pointing out that South Carolina is considering creating a DNA database of the presumed innocent.
Senate President Pro Tem Glenn McConnell says swabbing a suspect's mouth is no more invasive than taking fingerprints.Except that there is an actual database of fingerprints to check them against, correct? There isn't a huge federal DNA database. Is there? Or is that part of TIA?

Bank Lawyer's Blog has an interesting post about an American Banker editorial (apparently not available online) about the new FFIEC guidelines for stronger authentication for online banking.herman-munsters-identity-stolen

As if you needed more proof that identity thieves are lowly scum, they have now stolen Herman Munster's identity. If they had any class at all, they would have gone for Gomez Adams.

Hat Tip to Valley Wag for pointing out this must read Newsweek article "Intrigue in High Places" about how the chairwoman of HP's board spied on other directors, including gaining access to the call logs of their personal cell and residential phone lines by "pretexting". (The investigators pretended to be the board members to the phone companies to get access.) The targeted board member who was the source of leaks to CNet is still on the board, but Tom Perkins of Kleiner Perkins fame resigned in protest.software-liability-a-bad-idea-that-will-come-too

Time for me to weigh in on the subject of liability for software bugs. Bruce Schneier posted about it here, and Pete Lindstrom responded here. I agree with Lindstrom. It is an incredibly bad idea. Software liability laws will increase the costs of software development so high that it will drive small firms from the market, reduce customer choice resulting in less choice, less innovation and even worse software.
