Default Urge President Obama To Veto CISPA

What is CISPA:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyber_Intelligence_Sharing_and_Protection_Act
Quote:
CISPA is up for a vote this week. It would obliterate any semblance of online privacy in the United States, giving the government -- including the military -- broad new powers to spy on Internet users.
The White House says that any cybersecurity legislation must preserve "Americans' privacy, data confidentiality, and civil liberties and [recognize] the civilian nature of cyberspace."

Got some bad news ladies and gents. It's been passed through the House already

http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120426/14505718671/insanity-cispa-just-got-way-worse-then-passed-rushed-vote.shtml
It's been passed and they added some really bad amendments into it. They are really shooting this through.

I guess we'll see where Obama really stands on this issue, and not where he 'threatens' to.

I hope he vetoes it, but then he hasn't exactly engendered trust as to 'following through'.

Ya, he said he'd veto a lot of things but he hasn't. So ya this looks grim as hell.
