Awesume! us brits aren't affected too.
But if they shut sites like TPB down, will it still be available to everyone else?

Peace Walker, if you really are against this bill. At least provide a link to a petition or something to stop the bill. You know so the president can veto it.

Also, to the people that think that it doesn't affect them because they don't live in the US. You're wrong. You really think the US Government is really going to just spy on it's own citizens? Yeah right.

Signing petitions for such a bill might be a bad idea actually. I find it best to just stay off the radar because the bill will be passed regardless of a petition against it if Congress wants.

No one really has to sign it if they don't want to, but there's a link there if they want to. It may make a difference, or it may not.

Don't blame the government. It's Sony and Universal that are paying senators to do that spoon.

Ultimately, I believe the US, UK and similar countries just spy on each others' citizens to get around these things. I'm guessing the bill would just make it easier for them to get around certain restrictions.

CISPA's just a load of spoon to me.
I think it's just an excuse to spy on the unsuspecting general public. A bit like the "News International Phone Hacking Scandal" but with the internet.
