There is a 75 yo congressman who actually understands what it's about and is against it. Take a guess :)

Who?

I'm guessing it's Ron Paul and I'd be shocked if he has an inkling of an understanding of the technology.

I'm guessing it's his philosophy that conflicts with it. I don't think you need to understand technology necessarily.

Most politicians: more control by federal government!

Paul: less control by federal government!

I can't find any specific mention of his position on the topic, but I'm guessing parent was referring to 75-year-old Ron Paul
