CT INSIDER - Connecticut lawmakers are considering a bill that would aim to provide protections for those who choose online dating. The Judiciary Committee on Thursday passed legislation that would force online dating sites to verify the identity of users and provide that information if presented with a warrant, subpoena or court order. The bill also establishes new education and training programs to combat online abuse and establishes "grooming" as a separate crime. Although lawmakers moved the legislation onto the Senate, some noted that more work needs to be done to refine the language.
