New Sopa Bill

What do you guys think on CISPA?


What is CISPA?
Remember SOPA and PIPA, the terrible "anti-piracy" bills the internet raged into nonexistence? There's a new one, and it's maybe worse: the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act. CISPA. Here's everything you need to know about the worst privacy disaster our country has ever faced.

Would Facebook need to be given a warrant or subpoena before spilling your data to the feds? Nope! Would you ever be informed that you data had been released? Nope! What if you think the government has accessed your personal stuff without cause? Too bad! They're 100% immune.
This would let websites you use hand over your personal data and read your email.
The scariest part of CISPA is how astonishingly broad and loose it is, like some sort of giant, poorly-built rope bridge. Over a volcano. CISPA would permit any private company (Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, Google, you name it) to give away any and all data it's collected on you when asked by a government agency. Literally any government agency. This data would then head to the Department of Homeland Security.


Sites Supporting CISPA:
Facebook, Google, and Microsoft all support CISPA. Why? Because they don't want to get hacked, and they think this will keep them safe(r). Are they right in this? Maybe, but they're also ignoring the companies can share anything they want whenever they want however they want with the government aspect of the bill.

They need to leave the internet alone, the government just need to back away and leave it how it is.

 

I agree with you, but I don't think thats gonna happen.

 

It won't, they will always win.

 

I'm Canadian so I'll be safe from this at least for a while, but if it passes you KNOW that boycotts and protests on a massive scale are going to occur. I don't see why they need to introduce bills like this - If the system's not broken, don't fix it.

 

Yea, thats already happening. Especially with that Internet Group or W.e, Anonymous.

 

Google does not support it. It hasn't said anything about it.

 

Seriously getting annoyed with stuff like this. If this got passed I'd probably be safe for long enough ,due to me living in Australia, for all the protests to do something. I don't agree with this at all, they should just leave the internet alone, it's perfectly fine how it is.
