"To my knowledge, in our committee's entire history, no single individual has ever been targeted in such a manner," said Rep. Kevin Brady, R-Texas, chairman of the committee. "Civil liberties and privacy are still rights worth protecting, and I intend to protect them."


And, yes, Brady was one of the House Republicans who helped kill the ISP privacy rules.
