Google's Gmail could be blocked

This BBC article describes how a new law is being drafted by Democratic Senator Liz Figueroa, who calls Gmail "an invasion of privacy". Gmail might not be the smartest thing to use. Webmail is not particularly secure, private nor safe, at least the typical usage isn't. Instead of letting the user decide if they wish to use the product. Sen Liz Figueroa believes she and her goverment know best. It comes as no surprise that this goofy idea to block gmail comes from a California Democrat.
