Congress wants all cameraphones to make some noise?

I’m so happy that there is so little happening in the USA that Congress has the time to worry about this :-/

New York Representative, Pete King is introducing a bill to Congress that will require all new cameras to make a sound when the user takes a picture.

This is all in an effort to stop covert picture taking.

My opinion? If you don’t want a picture of you doing something to show up on the Internet, don’t do it. 
I don’t think that a sound will make all that much difference. If someone wanted to take a picture of someone or something there’s not a lot of stopping them really.
