Kentucky Lawmaker Wants to Make Anonymous Internet Posting Illegal – Video – WTVQ 36 – Lexington, Kentucky _- Another law enforcement nightmare that is bound to become a dead-letter law. Cripes. What’s worse is that the onus is on the website operator!
Kentucky Representative Tim Couch filed a bill this week to make anonymous posting online illegal.
The bill would require anyone who contributes to a website to register their real name, address and e-mail address with that site. Their full name would be used anytime a comment is posted.
If the bill becomes law, the website operator would have to pay if someone was allowed to post anonymously on their site. The fine would be five-hundred dollars for a first offense and one-thousand dollars for each offense after that.

Although, we are not talking about restricting what is published. A closer analogy would be if the newspaper required identification from anyone wishing to post content.
I didn’t believe it either… but if it’s worthy of printing in the Onion, it must be true, right?
