"Feds urge tougher ID theft laws"

The Register's article, "Feds urge tougher ID theft laws," discusses the ID Theft Task Force's Strategic Plan to combat ID Theft. The Register article says:

The Center for Democracy and Technology, applauded some of the plan's provisions, but said the plan didn't go far enough. "The report lacks any holistic approach to fixing an outdated national privacy framework that is dangerously ill equipped to respond to modern privacy threats," the CDT argued on its website. "CDT continues to call for the enactment of a national consumer privacy law and for real enforcement of the Federal Privacy Act."
