New Texas Law Limits Computer Repair To Licensed Private Investigators
Institute for Justice Texas Chapter Opens in Austin with Challenge to Statute
(snip from article...sysadmins next?)
Under the new law enacted in 2007, Texas has put computer repair shops
on notice that they had better watch their backs any time they work on
a computer. If a computer repair technician without a
government-issued private investigator's license takes any actions
that the government deems to be an "investigation," they may be
subject to criminal penalties of up to one year in jail and a $4,000
fine, as well as civil penalties of up to $10,000.
