The House of Representatives has approved overwhelmingly the Cyber Security Sharing and Protection Act or CISPA.
While the politicians argue over whether or not this bill compromises the privacy of individuals in this country, the assault on that same privacy continues. Every single piece of legislation that claims to protect us, but takes a little bit more of our precious freedoms, in this case our privacy, is an abomination.
Every attempt by government to supposedly protect our privacy does the exact opposite. This particular legislation is no different.
The more control the government has over the cyber world, the more control it has over each of us. Any legislation that allows for more sharing of information, more ability for government to control the Internet highway, more capability for government to shut down our only line of defense, the more controlled we will be.
There should be no avenue open to government that can allow it to control any speech whatsoever, especially the Internet. Without the capability to practice free speech in any form or in any format possible, we lose all ability to expose the corruption of government. That is exactly what the government desires, and it is exactly what it is attempting to accomplish with this new legislation.
We must stop any attempt by this heinous government to restrict our speech. If we lose the ability to expose the truth, we will lose all ability to protect ourselves from tyranny!
