We have that law in Maine. It's wonderful. I don't see why it would be ok at the state level but not the federal.

I believe I ran into this issue a few years ago and discovered the patent case when trying to work around. The xml file format allowed for arbitrary properties to be added (as xml does), and we were trying to embed metadata in word files. B

I installed a reed switch just under my windshield to unlock the doors. Swiping a magnet is easier than keeping a key in my pocket. Getting myself locked out is more of a concern than a stranger noticing the switch and finding a magnet. I&#
