   "A direct assault on Internet users" is what the ACLU is calling it. Yesterday a U.S. House committee approved HR 1981, a broad new Internet snooping bill. They want to force Internet service providers to keep track of and retain their customers' information -- including your name, address, phone number, credit card numbers, bank account numbers, and temporarily-assigned IP addresses.

   The American Civil Liberties Union, the American Library Association, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Demand Progress, and 25 other civil liberties and privacy groups have expressed our opposition to this legislation. Will you join us, by emailing your lawmakers today? Just use the form at right.

   They've shamelessly dubbed it the "Protecting Children From Internet Pornographers Act," but our staunchest allies in Congress are calling it what it is: an all-encompassing Internet snooping bill. ISPs would collect and retain your data whether or not you're accused of a crime.onitor the people of USA.

   I hope this doesn't passed. Now I worried about bill 978 and this. Oh that just great USA is fucked now. The internet could be dead soon.

   Unless you've got money and power probably never.

   I would call this phenomenon "psychosis by children". It happens when someone uses the excuse of child protection (even when it doesn't protect children) to pass laws that would otherwise repelled at first sight.

   Nothing good will come of this bill.
   I already signed and will be writing my deadbeat congress person I will no longer support them if they don't go back on this.

   I swear sometimes it seems the world needs a good purging with fire.

   it would be funny as hell if the first person tracked and arrested for CP and anything else this bill intends to search, is a fucking teen or a kid. then again if that happens the FBI (or whoever does the tracking) would have a derp moment and blame the parent(s) of being pedophiles and brainwashing their kids into being pedobears themselves.

   land of the free, indeed we are yes siree bob!

    Children and terrorism. Add either of these anywhere in any bill and the chance of it passing increases by over 9000%.

    You see the same scam pulled every time someone opposes the Homeland Security Act on civil rights or privacy issues. They automatically "hate" America.

    They've wanted control of the net for a long time. Sooner or later they'll get something in place, even if they have to manufacture an incident to get it. This is the "Golden Age" of the net, enjoy it while there's still time.

    laws are passed all the time, but that never stops whatever they make illegal from taking place.

    They do that the net will either die or everyone will start using very strong encryption.

    There's always VPNs, proxies and Tor. If you use a good 128 bit encryption there's literally no chance, that someone can decode it.
    Edit: Did I just quoted something that I wasn't supposed to?

    Those breaking the laws will just use strong encryption as well as most people with half a brain.
    This law also could kill the internet.

    I seriously doubt it will kill the internet, this is an American law, the internet is not exclusive to the USA. There's always Mexico or Canada lol.

    but controlling something doesn't necessarily kill it, it just makes it gay and lame. and the internet being today a necessity rather than a luxury is not dying.
