Many states now require sex offenders to turn in their email addresses and screen names so that the government can keep track of them. However, this new Georgia law requires that all sex offenders also hand over their passwords. Sara Totonchi of the Atlanta-based Southern Center for Human Rights stated that “This essentially will give law enforcement the ability to read e-mails between family members, between employers.”

Many would argue that because the offender committed the act that he must forever pay the price. But the question that arises in my mind is… How far is too far?… What if the government started requiring them to have live video feeds in their houses that the government could watch?
