Considering it was president Bush I would assume that this is only for the US. Secondly, not all hackers are bad. Thirdly, (is that even a word?) I couldn't understand the last part of your post.

Interesting, but we need to see if this law will really be applied... Some laws are created but does not works really well...

Id really like the see the list of all of the top most silly (or annoying Wink ) laws around. It really it stupid that we need to pass laws for things that cold be solved with common sence or just a general lack of stupidity.

Don't believe it will be that easy. If the law really says "true identity", your full name isn't enough,. even the full name including the city isn't enough. Even Full name, city and address might not be enough for "true identity", since it might change soon and its possible there might be more than 1 person by that name in that house (and to come worse they might even share the internet connection!).
I am sure "true identity" can't be fullfilled that easy. But if it doesnt mention to provide true identity for publicy, So maybe entering your passport/social serial into your account acessable only by admins might be enough Very Happy.

PS: luckily I am not affected by that law and can continue to flame you, muahahaha!

Such phrases have legal definitions prefixed to the legislation. Anyway, court precedence will eventually define and interpret such phrases.
Though in this case, I'm sure that "true identity" will have a strong definition somewhere.
