WASHINGTON — Stung by an embarrassing electronic leak last month revealing ethics investigations into dozens of lawmakers, Congress moved Tuesday to prohibit federal employees from using the same type of Internet file-sharing software blamed for the disclosure.
The Secure Federal File Sharing Act, introduced in the House, would bar federal workers and contractors from downloading, installing or using so- called peer-to-peer file-sharing software, such as Limewire, without official approval.
