The bill allows private companies to share information about their customers with each other and with the government with little more than an assertion that this information sharing is necessary for national security.
No warrants, no subpoenas, and this law supersedes any other privacy protection law. Oh, and this, too: it would immunize companies from either criminal or civil liability for personal data shared under CISPA. So they have basically no incentive not to collect as much information as they can about their customers.

Ever seen one of those TV shows where the cops help the criminals and the criminals help the cops but neither party get in trouble for anything they did to "help" the other.
This makes me think of that.
We all know it's wrong but we're all happy that the people that would do something, did that something when it was needed.
I don't fear CISPA, I fear the herds of uninformed mongrels that repost this shit across the internet for the next 3 days, they're still clueless.
All of these companies enable you. None of their services products are mandatory. if their network can be used more efficiently without town meetings and public votes, i'm all for it.
Like there isn't already that part of you that gossips and hides information from some people you know while sharing others secrets because "it's good for them".

^ Notice how they always use China as the threat.
With SOPA it was "China is stealing American IP." Now it is Chinese hackers we are supposed to be afraid of.
Yes...be afraid, very afraid of those scary foreigners. Pay no mind to the people in your own government who want to spy on your every action.

its so completely naive to think it doesn't matter "hey spy on me I am a law abiding citizen". there are laws about privacy, spying, warrants to investigate someone, for very good reasons and this basically legalizes what used to be VERY illegal. Lawyers, activists, business people and companies, employees, basically any law abiding citizen and even alleged criminals will be spied on. They will be data mining, blackmailing, harassing, falsely incriminating, they will be using the info for anti-competitive practices, against business competition, info war and way more ways that your average person couldn't even imagine.
And its not just contained to the usa, all the companies involved like Google and Facebook are international so this allows the FBI, NSA, security companies and any other company involved to spy on everybody internationally.
They already do all this the laws just make it nice kosher.
