Gidari's Congressional Testimony Cited in PCWorld Article

Congress should bring the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) into the twenty-first century.  That was the message from several witnesses, including Perkins Coie Partner Albert Gidari, to the Committee on the House of Representatives' Judiciary Committee, Subcommittee on the Constittution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties at a hearing Wednesday and described in the PCWorld article, "Lawmakers Consider Changes to Wiretapping Law."  

The article cites Gidari's explanation of the dilemma facing telecom and Internet service providers.  "These service providers are caught in the middle every day," he said. "The best way to determine whether ECPA is out of balance is to take a look at what service providers do every day - that is, essentially, guess."
