The ECPA was a forward-thinking statute when it was enacted in 1986. It specified standards for law enforcement access to electronic communications and associated data, affording important privacy protections to subscribers of emerging wireless and Internet technologies.<\/p>\n<p>The i2Coalition supports reform to help provide clear paths to privacy and protection for service providers. You also can further this cause in the following two ways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Educate yourself<\/strong><br \/>\nCheck out <a title=\"ECPA Reform: Why Now?\" href=\"http:\/\/digitaldueprocess.org\/index.cfm?objectid=37940370-2551-11DF-8E02000C296BA163\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ECPA Reform: Why Now?<\/a> by the Digital Due Process Coalition.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spread the word<\/strong><br \/>\nUse this handy application to <a title=\"Promote America's Innovation\" href=\"http:\/\/a.p2a.co\/zPj1ivC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Promote America&#8217;s Innovation<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In related news, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) and Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) each received the i2Coalition\u2019s \u201cChampion of Internet Innovation\u201d award. Both have been extremely resourceful and supporters of our cause.<\/p>\n<p>I, personally, had some key experiences during the week&#8217;s events. We met with Noah Phillips, Chief Counsel to Senator John Cornyn at the Senate Judiciary Committee, and spent time getting insight into our issues. As always, Noah and his team were very informative and provided the i2Coalition with wisdom and instruction on navigating Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n<p>Our last meeting was with <a title=\"Congressman Blake Farenthold (R-TX)\" href=\"http:\/\/farenthold.house.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Congressman Blake Farenthold (R-TX)<\/a> and we spent about 30 minutes talking about technology. He was very insightful and was the first politician to be able to describe and understand what cPanel does and who uses it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17952\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17952\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Phillips-and-Farenthold.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-17952\" alt=\"Photo\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Phillips-and-Farenthold-225x300.png\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17952\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aaron Phillips and Congressman Blake Farenthold<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Countless members of the i2Coalition spent most of the week moving quickly to meetings, events, and discussions with this nation&#8217;s government officials. Representatives from Rackspace, EIG, Parallels, LeaseWeb, Firehost, Gandi, ServInt, Hedgehog Hosting, Cheval Capital, and TechAssets as well as W. David Snead allocated this time, despite their busy schedules, to come teach those that shape policy and reform.
