Take this for instance.

If you’re going to try to pressure an ISP into getting the personal data behind someone’s online identity and said someone lives in Jersey, you’d better bring the force of a subpoena or a search warrant, otherwise you’re now going to be shit-outta-luck.

Normally, this wouldn’t be much cause for cheering, but considering they’ve had problems at New Jersey Online with users having lawsuits threatened against them for speaking out about their elected officials…I think it’s positively fantastic. Even the EFF thinks so.

Note: Yes, I know J. called me out on his blog. Five things you didn’t know about me and whatnot. I’m still working on it.
