The anticipation in the House of Representative is that the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA) will receive a 17-1 vote for approval next week when the House makes its decision.

The author of the bill is Michael Rogers of Michigan who is involved with technology corporations like Google.

Google, along with Microsoft, Facebook, IBM, Intel, Verizon and many others have aided other countries such as China in blocking their citizens from the information freedoms of the internet and are fervent supporters of the CISPA bill. Now those restrictions seem to be coming to America.

The public outcry over SOPA and PIPA forced Congress to shelve them. However, Capitol Hill with the efforts of the MPAA and RIAA and the Obama Administration, have come back with CISPA, a more controlling and encompassing bill that will not only end internet freedom, but create criminals of internet users.

CISPA’s purposefully broad definitions of cyber threat “has a very broad, almost unlimited definition of the information that can be shared with government agencies and it supersedes all other privacy laws” that are meant to incriminate citizens through their private communications. Control will be shifted from civilian agencies to the government and military.

CISPA effects America into a complete security surveillance nation where the government resembles those depicted in Orwell’s 1984 and Huxley’s Brave New World.

The military, being empowered by CISPA over citizens, is one of the most disturbing aspects of the bill. The Pentagon has stated that cyber-attacks are considered acts of war and therein the rules of wars apply. Essentially, the US government is declaring war against the American people and is ensuring their right to commit any and all citizens into military custody under that guise.

It is time to write, call, fax, and email your representative on Capitol Hill and demand that they do not vote for CISPA.
Our freedom on the internet and beyond depends on this bill not passing into law.
