CISPA Passes House

The controversial national cybersecurity bill known as CISPA has received 248 votes “aye” votes, more than the 218 necessary to pass the U.S. House of Representatives. The bill still needs to be passed by the Senate and signed by the President to become law. The White House has said President Obama will veto the bill.

The above link explains real well just how much dangerous CISPA just became with some of the amendments added that were supposed to 'limit' the bill that actually expanded the reasons government can collect your personal data.
