It is impossible to get changes in the Fair Credit Reporting Act in the
traditional way. Credit reporting agencies have far too much personal
information that is passed out with incrediable ease at the consumers expense. 

I have a suggestion! 

Today, with TRW, Equifax and TransUnion's vast network, it is easy to obtain
anyone's credit report from various sources. Do you think if someone,
outside of the USA, obtained the credit reports on half, maybe all, of the
US Senators, congressmen, judges, etc, and published them in their entirity,
on the internet, from outside the US, would get their attention? Then there
would be changes, overnight, protecting the right of privacy! Let them
become the victim of credit reporting agencies once and shit will happen
overnight. 

If someone who is not a US citizen does this from outside the US, I don't
think that they can be held accountable under US law? I am new to the
internet and don't have a clue how to do it, but someone out there does and
probably has a friend in Bankok that will help him. Put the word out!

attila sez:

	well, I take it as assumed correct that illegally violating the
    credit and personal information of member os Congress (might as well 
    include the Clintons and the Gores) would get a response on privacy.

	but you would be a targt of an incredible manhunt. For example,
    I can give you the name of an online information provider (if I was
    so disposed --which I am _not_, as I do not wish to be labelled as a 
    conspirator) who would provide the credit, medical, and background 
    reports of 500+ individuals for $20-25 a pop.  then you take out an 
    account on a system with a false id and does not require credit cards 
    (pay cash, not cheque)  --mail each one to the target rep/sen/bubba 
    after mailing the whole set to Geraldo, or some other slimball.

	but, I think I would put my money on further laws to really 
    clamp down on free speech. and, if you ever were caught, don't 
    expect all of us to donate one day a month for 10-50 years to visit
    you in the slammer.

	more laws, more political police, more prisons  --that's their 
    motto. 

	enjoy
