Let’s stop CISPA (H.R. 624)!
by techie.g33k on Apr.17, 2013, under News, Techie
Last year, CISPA (then H.R. 3261 aka SOPA) sought to create powerful new protections for companies who wanted to sidestep privacy law in order to share sensitive user information with the government without judicial oversight. CISPA may also result in more sharing to the National Security Agency, which the Libertarian Party and civil liberties groups like the ACLU and EFF oppose.
Please see the following links and take time to contact your
Representative in the HouseSenators about why we must stand together and vote AGAINSTH.R. 624(CISPA – Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act).Below are a few links that provide some more information on this bill:
