Insanity: CISPA Just Got Way Worse, And Then Passed On Rushed Vote
Submitted by Melinda L. Secor on Sun, 2012-04-29 01:00
"Basically this means CISPA can no longer be called a cybersecurity bill at all. The government would be able to search information it collects under CISPA for the purposes of investigating American citizens with complete immunity from all privacy protections as long as they can claim someone committed a "cybersecurity crime". Basically it says the 4th Amendment does not apply online, at all. Moreover, the government could do whatever it wants with the data as long as it can claim that someone was in danger of bodily harm, or that children were somehow threatened—again, notwithstanding absolutely any other law that would normally limit the government's power."

Government makes laws for the "mundanes", yet is itself essentially lawless.
Go to bestvpnservice.com or vpnreviews.com to find a vpn provider that will get around this government attack on privacy. They can read all the encrypted traffic they want to, it won't get them anything. This post was made from my European server.
