I agree with some of the points Tyler makes in his post however, there are a few thing overlooked. For instance, the 4th amendment right is not going to be taken away but when the citizens of the United States willfully allow government officials to overstep their 4th Amendment right it is the same as citizens relenquishing that right. Also, CISPA may seem like a great idea to fight terrorism but why is it at the costs of internet users privacy? Terrorism has claimed less victims than cigarettes and alcohol related deaths, so why is our privacy being taken away for something that is not as deadly as others things that are more common and readily available to citizens such as cigarettes and alcohol. If CISPA was such a great idea, why is there so much opposition from major internet companies like Mozilla and other politcal activist? It seems this is more freedom being traded in for protection and every bit of privacy we once had will be gone.
