Internet privacy in the US is about to come to an end.

[SgtDaemon]

Really don't care because I'm not doing stupid stuff like DDoSing, buying drugs/guns/bombs, or any illegal crap online. Most I've done that would seem suspicious was look up how nuclear bombs work on Wikipedia.

Ah yes, the good old 'if you have nothing to hide why give a stuff about privacy' argument.

yeah no except you dont understand
why the forget do you care if some guy sees you shoppping on amazon once a year

[Col. Burton]

ISPs already monitor your internet usage so this really does nothing besides get that information from your ISPs (not saying the government doesn't already do that).

because it sets a precedent that your rights can be trampled in the name of national security

isn't CISA apart of SOPA of some sort?

[Foopster]

do the reet politicians who write these bills up even use the internet at all?

what driving force is pushing them to sign this crap?

Get your Anti-Obama proxies ready people.

If I had to guess, the RIAA probably has SOMETHING to do with it. They've had a rich history of bribing politicians to try and sway copyright law in their favor, and considering this could easily be used for that... yeah. This is one of the reasons that the TPP is so stuffty, because they managed to get their mitts all over it and write it in such a way that it maximizes profit for them and forgets over the little guys.

Let me get this straight, will the FBI be able to arrest me under US laws while being in a totally different country?

If it worked that way, that'd only be the case if you were in US territory.

Essentially, the famous 'CISA' spying bill that has been struck down multiple times over the past 5 years or so is about to become law. Is there anything to be done about it? At this point, not really. CISA has been attached to the upcoming major budget bill as a rider; meaning that it is almost guaranteed to pass because to not pass it would mean to not pass the budget bill, which would lead yet another government shutdown.

Is it even possible to pass the bill without the rider tagging along and loving everything up somehow
