(4) This Nation faces a shortage of trained, qualified information technology workers, including computer security professionals. As the demand for information technology workers grows, the Federal government will have an increasingly difficult time attracting such workers into the Federal workforce. Shortage of workers who want to work for minimum wage perhaps? (6) The Nation's information infrastructures are owned, for the most part, by the private sector, and partnerships and cooperation will be needed for the security of these infrastructures. I found that interesting since it was once owned by the public sector. And what comes with partnership & cooperation? "(f) DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNET PRIVACY PROGRAM. -- The Institute shall encourage and support the development of one or more computer programs, protocols, or other software, such as the World Wide Web Consortium's P3P program, capable of being installed on computers, or computer networks, with Internet access that would reflect the user's preferences for protecting personally-identifiable or other sensitive, privacy-related information, and automatically executes the program, once activated, without requiring user intervention.". Gee, kind of like passport? Written by tilly Along with all the Sun, Oracle, IBM, etc... employees. If MS is the only game in town, the demand for engineers will probably go down. The demand for support specialists on the other hand... Some other thoughts: Anyway, I'm afraid I'd have to move to another country or find work in another field if the thing passes. I can't see it passing in the form it is now. That's not to say that a scary version still won't get through.
