Congress is moving forward on a bill that would limit government access to citizens' email accounts. An update to the 1986 Electronic Communications Privacy Act, the new law will require law enforcement to get a warrant in order to access emails that are older than 6 months old. In March, a House panel is expected to move this bill forward.
