Soo while SOPA/PIPA has been taking over the news, something like this is sneaking in under us, and we need to rally up the same kind of support to stop this one too!

It allows the government to view everything everyone does on the internet, they can see you history, get your IP address, and see every aspect of your life. ITS ABSURD.
THIS. MUST. BE. STOPPED!

I enjoy your cap rage.

"under language approved 19 to 10 by a House committee, the firm that sells you Internet access would be required to track all of your Internet activity and save it for 18 months, along with your name, the address where you live, your bank account numbers, your credit card numbers, and IP addresses you've been assigned."

This article was published in August. I looked up PCFIP and I couldn't really find anything that doesnt date past August.

It really is though. We used to just need to worry about one at a time. Did a bunch of freedom haters just get together and agree on trying to get these internet ruining bills to pass?

Oh dear fucking God they did a good job with this one.

Now people can say only pedophiles have something to worry about.

And here I thought pirates were the new cool thing. Pedophiles are so last year.

I am beginning to agree with the guy above somewhere that said a bunch of freedom haters just decided to fuck with the one thing that they can't own: the internet. If they can't have it, they will fuck it up for everyone else.

I know I've said it before, but I'm going to say it again: They don't understand. We, the people, are the internet. No one owns us, and no one owns the internet.

I hate people who just want to control everything, sure there are bad things happening on the internet, but you can't stop it unless you fuck it up for everyone. People are getting murdered in your cities, people are doing drugs, you don't fuck it up for everyone there now do you?

Let's make sure that this doesn't slip under the radar at all, start sharing this with others in your sphere of influence and let's destroy this quickly!
