Forget SOPA, You Should Be Worried About This Cybersecurity Bill

from the this-is-not-good dept

Mon, Apr 2nd 2012 11:00am — Mike Masnick

While most folks are looking elsewhere, it appears that Congress is trying to see if it can sneak an absolutely awful "cybersecurity" bill through Congress. We've discussed how there's been some fighting on the Senate side concerning which cybersecurity bill to support, but there's a similar battle going on in the House, and it appears that the Rogers-Ruppersberger bill, known as CISPA (for Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act) or HR 3523 is winning out, with a planned attempt to move it through Congress later this month. The bill is awful -- and yet has somehow already gained over 100 sponsors. In an attempt to pretend that this isn't a "SOPA-like" problem, the supporters of this bill are highlighting the fact that Facebook, Microsoft and TechAmerica are supporting this bill.

However, this is a terrible bill for a variety of reasons. Even if we accept the mantra that new cybersecurity laws are needed (despite a near total lack of evidence to support this -- and, no, fearmongering about planes falling from the sky doesn't count), this bill has serious problems. As CDT warned when this bill first came out, it's way too broad and overreaching:

However, the bill goes much further, permitting ISPs to funnel private communications and related information back to the government without adequate privacy protections and controls. The bill does not specify which agencies ISPs could disclose customer data to, but the structure and incentives in the bill raise a very real possibility that the National Security Agency or the DOD’s Cybercommand would be the primary recipient.

If it's confusing to keep track of these different cybersecurity bills, the ACLU has put together a handy dandy (scary) chart (pdf) comparing them all. And what comes through loud and clear is that the Rogers-Ruppersberger CISPA bill will allow for much greater information sharing of companies sending private communication data to the government -- including the NSA, who has been trying very, very hard to get this data, not for cybersecurity reasons, but to spy on people. CISPA has broad definitions, very few limits on who can get the data, almost no limitations on how the government can use the data (i.e. they can use it to monitor, not just for cybersecurity reasons) and (of course) no real oversight at all for how the data is (ab)used.

CDT has put together a reasonable list of 8 things that should be done if politicians don't want to turn cybersecurity into a new SOPA, but so far, Congress is ignoring nearly all of them. Similarly, EFF is asking people to speak out against CISPA, noting that it basically creates a cybersecurity exemption to all existing laws. If the government wants your data, it just needs to claim that it got it for "cybersecurity purposes" and then it can do pretty much whatever it wants.

This is a really bad bill and it looks like it's going to pass unless people speak up.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

Why does it always go this way...
Why is spying on U.S. citizens always the solution?

Why can't security just be...increased? Why can't the people implementing the solutions be held accountable for doing a poor job?

Why can't this money go into educating people to think in a more secure way and implement better procedures?

  Re: Why does it always go this way...
  That's the last thing the Government needs...Educated citizens. Why do you think they're working so hard to "pass" students with policies such as "no one left behind." Also, the money that US states spend on prisons has risen at 6x the rate of spending on higher education. http://t.co/7BaxIzQd. Why don't we stop trying to put everyone in prison and start educating them.

  Shame they didn't compare the bills to SOPA. Comparing 4 individual bills is nice and all, but the public is simply not going to care.

  It's america sir. We take credit only for our great oppressions on evil, but not fore the oppressions we make that are. The deeper in to life we go, the more hell we spawn. Our government is one of billions of issues that just need to stop abd shut the hell up for once. Hopefully anonymous and others who are bluntly saying "STFU" right at them will get to them. Right about now is the timing for a revolt, as have many other countries in the past. This one will more or less involve death and destruction, but more or less, the government will fold in on itself and we, the people, shall take it.

  Re: Why does it always go this way...
  I have an answer for each of the questions you asked:
  
  1. According to the U.S. Gov...we are all pirates of intellectual properties.
  
  2. Security "increase" brings more ridiculous, useless, one-sided, taxpayer dollar wasting Bills or Laws designed to undermine our freedoms as Americans, to the drawing table.
  
  3. Most of the money educating people should be spent educating our Government agencies on what the internet is and how to use it in daily life (this means you U.S. DOJ).
  
  In other words I totally agree :-)

  Re: Why does it always go this way...
  What is the benefit that is supposed to be provided by the government getting this information?
  
  Is the return worth the cost in privacy?
  
  That's an argument that goes back 300 years or more, but there hasn't been any indication of WHY this would be something that our tax dollars should be spent on.
  
  Maybe if people understood the benefits of sacrificing a little freedom they might not mind as much.
  
  We sacrifice freedoms all the time for security. For further information go to a library and reade John Locke.

        Now, I've been very clear since Anonymous started this effort -- shutting down various websites using what is effectively crowdsourced distributed denial of service attacks -- that I think the strategy is really dumb.
        
        I think that denial of service attacks are a pretty dumb idea.

        LulzSec was entertaining.
        LulzSec pointed out the amazing disparity of security out on the web.
        Everyone wants to pillory LulzSec, but how much shit did Sony catch for not patching well documented holes into their systems? Oh thats right they decided to skip the Congressional Hearing on the matter. They get to write off the "credit monitoring" and cry about how much it cost, when they could have spent much less previously to I dunno encrypt the freaking data.
        
        LulzSec did something people needed to see, there is no great and powerful Oz there is a scared little man behind a curtain.
        
        Lulzsec gave us amazing headlines of Cybergeddon!!!! Blargh...
        No one has questioned the media and their total lack of reality in their reports.
        
        Do I think they are the bestest people on the planet, nope.
        But they haven't disappeared anyone into a black ops site somewhere else in the world to torture information out of them.
        
        ZOMG THEY HACKED THE CIA!
        Truth - they defaced and took down a front facing website of no real consequence.
        
        ZOMG THEY HACKED CONGRESS!
        Truth - they defaced and took down a front facing website to prove a point, a hacked website should NOT be considered an act of war.
        
        ZOMG THEY HACKED SOME SHERIFFS OFFICE!
        Truth - using an unsecured outsourced site should be illegal. Storing sensitive information on those servers should be a crime.
        
        So other than your demand, why should anyone else who is part of the "anti-SOPA" crowd bother to make a statement on what some gifted kiddies did? They aren't congresscritters who have to get soundbites out to make sure they are on the right side of the issue.
        
        The FBI arresting LulzSec will be a mistake. It will motivate more people to continue the work. It shows that with all of the corruption and problems in the world the greatest crime is to show contempt for a corporation.
        
        Oh and Mike isn't responsible for user comments, they are made by OTHER people rather than the other voices you hear in your head.
        
        While the actions of LulzSec might have sped up the timetable to pretend this bill wasn't already in the planning stages is delusional. The cranky old men have figured out the kids are using the new fangled interwebs thing to plot against them and speak out, and they need to be stopped.

  Re:
  Uhh this isnt to catch lulzsec or Anonymous, these guys are wayyy smarter thany anyone in your government, they will get around this like a showhorse clears a hurdle. Non this cybersecuroty bill is to catch you the average citizen. The corperate masters want to know when you are pirating stuff so they can arrest or sue you or both. It's also for the powers that be to make sure there is nothing like the Arab Spring in the united states. Look at the role of twitter and Youtube, and facebook and texting in the popular uprisings around the world. Look at it in your own Occupy movements. The people who are in power want to keep the average joe from seeing the evidence or repression and organizing against it. This is to keep you guys in line...no one else

The government is bringing down a hammer quietly on the freedom we have in the internet. It's only a matter of time before the government decides to implement that killswitch, or place monitors like these all over the country. We've seen it in North Africa, Why not here? Feasiblity is not an issue. We have to stop these bills that are getting passed under our noses, and fast. Freedom my ass. It's a sham for a aristocracy.

Funny you use this analogy, when literally, one of the scare tactics being used to push crap like this, is that planes are going to start falling from the sky.

Let them, as long as my rights are upheld.

You can never get real 'security' from a government that's not willing to also give you your liberty; at that point you just have a different entity that you'll need to be secured from: Government.

For if Government provides enough 'security' to control everything, then the people will need security FROM government.

I mean - any tyrant can say he'll provide 'security' - few leaders really work to provide 'rights'. Perhaps this sums it up best:

Thomas Jefferson: �A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have.�

You really think that some idiot kids doing some temporary vandalism is the justification needed to take away your privacy and letting the gov't spy on everyone? Are you insane?

No, but our 'leaders' are insane...

These are just the things they use to push these laws. Of course, the media hypes it like it's a huge deal.

We, as IT people know that 'lulzsec' - or whatever, is likely pimple faced basement dwelling intorverts that know how to script well, because the only friends they have are Notepad++ and The internet.

But give that to the media and the spin becomes:

"Malicious hacking group 'lulsec' is threatening the country by hacking the DOD's web site... " - yada yada...

When all that was really done is some joke put up on the main page, etc.

So NO, it's not a legit justification technically, but spin it in the media and it will become the 'justification' that congress needs to pass more laws that take away our rights and give them to corporations.

People need to teach them a lesson and refuse to buy,rent,download, and go to the theaters.
30-60 Days I can guarantee that would make the fuckers change their viewpoint pretty fucking fast.

I've not seen a movie since the raid on mega. It was boring at first to give up all the T.V. time and trips to the theaters.

With the extra 3-4 hours I save every single day I've became way more productive and have managed to shed a few pounds.

So with that said I will say thank you very much to the movie and music industries for giving me my life back.

The only regrets I have is that if I knew this is the way they wanted stuff I would have never bought satellite T.V. or wasted countless gallons of gas for the 40 mile round trip to see movies on the big screen every week.

Even if they did back down and tell the world sorry I will never be a customer for any of them again.

I hope some others decide to do similar shit and find out something about yourself you would've never known otherwise. For me it was losing the weight about 35 lbs.

  Take a close look at the wording in all of them and you'll find references to "protecting the economy" and intellectual property.
  
  The people behind it are the MPAA, RIAA, and other IP maximalists. Their other projects include ACTA and TPP. They won't stop until IP law is reformed or they succeed in getting us all under surveillance by our own ISPs.
  
  Personally, I prefer IP reform. If there's less for them to gain by pushing such laws they'll stop pushing them.

Is there no nd to these billsmaking a massive spy network for the government? As a Canadian these bills worry me the most because not only are they powerful enough to start filling our prisons up with nerds... geeks... And programmers who's inteligence makes them a threat to "national security" aka "Governments international Slave Network for monopoly money"

The american dollar holds no value as anything but a token of servitude. The less money you have the greater slave you will always be.

Want to watch the world burn? Take All your money, all your reasources out of banks. Banks that take your money and reasources that support the corperations that enslave you and the government that imprisons the free thinkers of our society.

The only way anyone is going to get out of this alive is what could only be called a governmental Genocide. Sad to say but Republicans and Democratic officials of every sort is going to have to die. The people need to form a new government. One based on Freedom not slavery and security.

Nobody wants to say bloodshed isn't the only way out of slavery but the government has already resorted to bloodshed upon the people.

Do your part and show that the people can be terrorists because anyone who opposes the Secured slavery of all American people has already been labeled a terrorist. Your going to prison anyways in the long run so you might as well fight the power that's going to put you there.

You are all violent criminals expressiong violent ideas and fighting for freedom. Something you do not have. Rally before the government has the power to cut down free thinking before it can oppose it.

If the people don't stand up now and one of these bills passes. You will simply always be slaves. Step out of line and I am sure the blue collar slaves will have built a prison for you.

One thing to keep in mind is that specific and well-thought reasons for opposing legislation goes far further than a form letter. So when given the option, make sure to put your personal touch to it.
