I used to be against this, but I'm not be because I realized that it won't affect any of us unless we're criminals. Why do you REALLY not want it to pass?

Because blocked websites n' stuff and censoring.

Just read a section stating that this would allow Facebook, Google, and others, to report people for searching for illegal things.  If this means music, torrents, etc then I'll be pissed.

rip bill of rights

The Constitution has written into it that it is "The supreme law of the land." Since the Bill of Rights is in the constitution, anything that takes away rights is an illegal law. If you remember to use the Constitution if it spells out that you are allowed to do whatever you did to get in court, there is nothing they can legally do but set you free.
If they don't, someone's gonna talk, and pretty quickly it will spread. You will have become a martyr, and everyone will open their eyes relatively soon about the government passing unconstitutional laws.

• Pirating music is illegal
• Torrenting things to get them for free is ILLEGAL
• You can go to jail for doing either of those things
• Because both of the above things happen thousands of times a day, that's all the more reason to let it pass.

Those points are 100% factual, if you get pissed at this bill because it'll stop you from doing illegal activities, then you need to pipe down.

"According to the EFF, the language in CISPA is worded so broadly that it could be interpreted to allow Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and companies such as Google and Facebook to intercept your messages and transmit them to the government."

Personally I'm not that bothered, Youtube already knows when I use licensed music and I'm disposed against pirating.

They do that anyways so what's the problem?

Making sure all points of view are in the discussion isn't bias.

uh no
I was saying the EFF is biased
which they obviously are, if you're going to argue that.. you're hopeless

[Teneksi]

I don't know much of anything about the EFF and I haven't personally read the bill. So, no, I'm not trying to argue that, I'm just pointing out how it might be considered bad, for your convenience.
