Remembering that the Patriot Act was dropped on Congress just 20 days after 9/11 — the Department of Justice had had it sitting in a drawer for years — Lessig asked Clarke if DoJ had a similar proposed law, an “i-Patriot Act,” to drop in the event of a “cyber-9/11.” Clarke responded, “Of course they do. And Vint Cerf won’t like it.”
I don’t even want to imagine, how an i911 would turn out for the web as we know it.
