Congressman Pete King (RINO-NY) wants your cell phone to go “clickâ€
Every time you use it to take a picture.
Under penalty of law. (Link fixed 090320.)

More to the point, my current CAMERA doesn't make a sound when I take a picture (as I've turned it off) likewise my pocket video camera makes no sound.
I’m promoting the idea that phones (and cameras, etc.) should emit a piercing sound, blinding light and pungent smell everytime you're about to take a video, a picture or turn on the microphone. Yes, this would be a little annoying everytime you’re about to make or receive a call, but it's for the children.
