Shouldn't our government be doing more important things?

...like paying off our 14,000,000,000,000 in debt?

Haven't you noticed that they have been avoiding that for a good 50+ years now?

Canada has had this for the past 5 months and not a single loving person is complaining, you are all hyper-overreacting

[Igloos]

I just read the bill, oh my god. This is infringing on our privacy, but then again, it could crack down on terrorists who use social-networks so I'm not gonna complain.

It's horrible to know that every conversation we've had with somebody is automatically read or stored in a database by our government. This isn't right.

In an April 16th, 2012, press release, the House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence announced the approval of several amendments to CISPA, including the addition of a new provision "to permit federal lawsuits against the government for any violation of restrictions placed on the government’s use of voluntarily shared information, including the important privacy and civil liberties protections contained in the bill," the inclusion of an anti-tasking provision to "explicitly prohibit the government from conditioning its sharing of cyber threat intelligence on the sharing of private sector information with the government," and the prevention of the government from using the information for "any other lawful purpose unless the government already has a significant cybersecurity or national security purpose in using the information."

Good job actually trying to figure out how the bill is progressing guys
