Is there a good writeup of what Joe Consumer needs to know about the new security laws?<p>I'd love something concise and simplified I can share with friends and family who don't care about the technical details (and ideally something easy to share around).
The idea that a government would give itself permission to spend massive amounts of money isn't news.<p>The tucking of unrelated legislation into the budget however, is news, especially since it had been vehemently opposed over and over in every previous version.<p>Guess which part is reported in detail.
