Re: Consumer Watchdog Calls On Gov. Brown To Sign 'Do Not Track' Legislation, But Cautions Law Is Only A Step Towards Knowledge, Not Full Consumer Power

That article actually misreports the final vote yesterday in the California Assembly.

It was actually 78-0 in favor of this "Do Not Track" legislation.

That makes all the floor votes on this "Do Not Track" Bill *unanimous* from
the first time it was voted on in the Assembly ( 73-0 ) to the recent Senate
floor vote ( 37-0 ) and now the final approval of amendments added by
the Senate by the originating house ( 78-0 ).

>From 'soup to nuts'... every lawmaker has voted 'Yes' to this "Do Not Track"
legislation, and it is now on the Governor's desk ( and he has already said he
is ready to sign it into LAW ).

>From the official legislation tracking site...
