This is one of the of the areas important to me, as a "technology 
worker".  There are, unfortunately, serious worries in McCain's stated 
technology policy (which was one of the last of his policies to be 
finalized and publicly posted, and yet should probably have been one of 
the first) and voting record.  I shall refer you to the presentation of 
Dr. Lessig on the subject:

(Dr. Lessig is someone that I have come to trust on the legal/political 
side of technology and intellectual property who knows what's at stake 
on the issues and is very eloquent when discussing them...)
