EPIC has a history of being pretty over the top with their statements and demands. I wouldn't take anything they claim too seriously unless it's corroborated by a more reliable source.
Thanks, I wasn't aware of EPIC. Now that I've read more about EPIC and the executive order referenced in this article, I regret posting this link. The article does appear to significantly overstate the EO. But I appreciate all of your comments - this has been enlightening :)
