Security Please: Indiana Attorney General Steven Carter

Dear Attorney General Steven Carter:

I understand on Thursday, you were in Fort Wayne, pushing law enforcement entrance into the digital age. Fort Wayne law enforcement is not your most technology savvy type. Hell they are having enough problems catching our own drug dealers. Just ask the small town Muncie police force that arrested one of our big time drug dealer. Steven, what's up with that? I know you've been busy with all the fraud concerning nonprofits and consumers in Fort Wayne. But, I think you better take a little closer look at this Internet stuff, if you know what I mean. Meaning these organizations are full of nepotism and cronyism and are not necessarily intellectually wired with computer knowledge. I fear that those citizens who maintain these sex offender websites are not law officials. And therefore, oversight is lacking for these people.

These folks are capable of capturing the keystrokes of law abiding taxpayers who log onto these websites simply to gather information about sex offenders. You (meaning officials) provide these sites with little logos on giving these sites authenticity. Folks think everything is peachy because government supported and sponsored some of these sites.. But are these sites really government sites and are they really safe?

Identity theft can become a problem for these folks who visit such websites which lack privacy disclaimers. Attorney General Carter, I know you are in the business of protecting our citizens. So Steven are you requiring local law enforcement sites to warn citizens about the risk of their identity being stolen?

Well Steven, I don't expect to hear from you. I've yet to hear about State charges brought against the folks who ripped off our local home buyers. But, that does not mean I'm going to stop writing.
