What Is CISPA?
CISPA is a proposed national "cyber security law" bouncing around Congress...
​

The intent of the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, introduced by U.S. Representative Michael Rogers (R-MI), is to protect America's internet interests (both governmental and our precious YouTubes) against attacks. It's technically an amendment to the National Security Act of 1947, but would have sweeping 21st century consequences. Rogers cites China as a main threat—conventional wisdom does say they're constantly trying to breach American networks, along with Russia and Iran—but this goes way beyond Cold War hack paranoia, and into your laptop.

President Obama says he'll veto the bill if it lands on his desk.

Hey, hey, hey, hey oi, oi, oi don't you call me a wanker! I only do that at night when I'm alone! But no I do agree with you, it just makes me want to watch a steve irwin show going "Have ago at this beaut! She is also known as the American Government, watch 'ow she tries to establish her dominance over the teritory... Croiky! She's a feisty one!"
 
You know what's the scary part about all this? That some silicon valley corporations are in favor of this bill just because it literally gives them immunity, hence corrupt companies like Facebook supporting it.

Under CISPA, private companies may spy on user communications, whether stored or in transit, and freely pass personal information to the government as long as they claim a vague "cybersecurity" exception. In a press call, Rep. Rogers stated that the bill "does not provide any authority for the government to monitor private networks or read private e‑mail," yet the bill allows private companies to use vaguely defined “cybersecurity systems” to "identify and obtain" information on any relevant cyber threat and then send the communications (without de-identifying the data) to the government. As long as companies act in "good faith" and the collection is for a "cybersecurity purpose"—a purpose as vague as protecting or securing any network from degradation or disruption—there are no limits on what type of information can be intercepted and shared. In short, surveillance would be outsourced to private companies that are not governed by the Fourth Amendment.

They may as well hire people to sit next to you while you go on your computer.
It's a complete invasion of privacy.
