Also, have you read section 802 of the new law? You know, of course, it has no sunset provision as other parts of the act do?Obviously the intent is for these provisions to remain permanently as federal crimes.
I'm a retired cop.
The last six years of my career I was the division commander in charge of the major investigations division — that's detectives among other things — of a fair-sized urban police department.
I can say from experience that no American law enforcement agency of any size has enough resources to handle the bona fide crimes occurring in its jurisdiction much less to go snooping around in the affairs of the average poor schlub innocently going about his day to day business.
Don't worry, it'll all be OK.
