What's In A Name?

PLAN blog and Barista report that New Jersey Assemblyman, Peter J. Biondi (R), is trying to ban anonymous blogging. Biondi's bill would require operators of websites to keep a list of legal names and addresses of any and all posters (and commenters?) on their websites. PLAN staff responds:

I wonder what's next? The banning of unsigned editorials?

I bring this news to you at the risk of the General Assembly picking it up and running with it themselves. I wouldn't put any bad idea past them.
