Tiffiny from champion SOPA-fighters Fight for the Future says:
This year, grassroots movements defeated SOPA in the US and ACTA in Europe. We might be able to make another bad-idea bill, CISPA, go down in flames too (or get the privacy protections we’ve been fighting for). CISPA– which already passed the House — would give government access to all your personal data with no restrictions on what they could do with it. The Senate version of CISPA, which is slightly better but could be made much, much worse is going to final vote today.

Or think it’s creepy that the government listens in on your cell phone calls, knows your location right now, reads your emails, all without a warrant? A bill going to vote today in Congress would make all of this government spying legal.
Millions of us aren’t aware of this bill or don’t realize how far they go.

We took some time to try to capture exactly what’s so dangerous and disturbing about having secrets at all.

This could be the year for internet freedom and the open internet to prevail above huge amounts of lobbying dollars. And racking up wins on SOPA, CISPA, ACTA — that’d be unprecedented. Millions of people could help make that happen.
