Is CISPA A Government Trojan
Horse?


U.S. Government Can Use CISPA Internet
Spying To Control and Forfeit Businesses—Seize Your Property:


CISPA:The Cyber Information
Sharing and Protection Act if passed by Congress would allow U.S.
Spy and other government agencies to share Americans’ confidential Internet and
other information with Government Certified Self Protected Cyber Entities,
Certified Cyber Entity Employees and Elements in both government and private
sectors to help protect them—against Cyber threats. 


However—CISPA would also allow
Government agencies, police and government quasi/contractors (WITHOUT WARRANTS)
OR LIABILITY to take out of context—any innocent hastily written email, fax or
other Internet activity to allege a crime or violation was committed to cause a
person’s arrest, assess fines or civilly forfeit a business or person’s
property. There
are more than 350 laws and violations that can subject property to government
asset forfeiture. Government civil asset forfeiture requires only a civil
preponderance of evidence for police to forfeit property, little more than
hearsay. No one need be charged with a crime. Corrupt Police can even
create the hearsay. Government
can use CISPA to (certify any Self Protected Cyber Entity or their employee—to
spy on their employers and clients: (CIVIL Asset Forfeiture Incentive). U.S.
Government is not prohibited from paying any Government Certified Cyber Self
Protected Entity or Employee; or Element part of government forfeited assets or
other compensation that result from the aforementioned providing U.S.
Government a corporation’s or clients’ private/confidential information—that
(now) require a warrant or court order. Federal. Government currently contracts
on a fee/commission-sharing basis with Self Protected Cyber Entities, Elements
and Contractors that have security clearances to participate in facilitating
arrests and Government asset forfeitures. It is expected U.S. Government,
police and private contractors’—Civil Asset Forfeiture of Americans’ property
will greatly escalate if CISPA is passed allowing Government certified private
cyber entities and their employees—No Warrant Searches of persons’ and
Businesses’ confidential Internet Information—that can be handed over to the
government e.g.
private emails, faxes, phone and transmitted files for investigation,
prosecution and asset forfeiture—circumventing the Fourth Amendment. 


CISPA Internet Spying: Since CISPA was
passed by the House,
two additional cyber-security bills have been created in the Senate called, “The Cyber Security
Act of 2012” and “SECURE IT Act”. Both bills appear unconstitutional; appear
designed to circumvent the Fourth Amendment and public Freedom of Information
Requests. The Cyber Security Act of 2012 formally known as S. 2105 was created
by Senate Democrats, Joe Lieberman and Susan Collins. Similar to CISPA, the
Cyber security Act of 2012 would abolish legal walls that stop Federal
government and private companies sharing information. The SECURE IT ACT: S.2151
was introduced by Senate Republicans on March 1st 2012: would (require) federal
contractors to alert government about any cyber threats, forcing such
communications between government regulators and corporations. The SECURE IT
Act authorizes sharing of persons’ private Internet information (without a
warrant) going beyond what is necessary to report a believed cyber threat.
SECURE It Act fails to create a regulatory system at the Federal level to
oversee cyber-security threats opening the door for persons’ and businesses’
confidential information to be misused and misappropriated by government
agencies and private sector government certified cyber entities. 


Under CISPA: Government should
be prohibited from using so-call (Certified Self Protected Cyber Entities,
their Employees) and Elements to circumvent the Fourth Amendment; escape Public
Freedom of Information Requests. CORRUPTED: Government Certified Self Protected
Cyber Entities and Employees, U.S. Government Agencies, Contractors and Police
too easily may use someone’s confidential Internet Information, e.g.
transmitted files and private emails collected (without warrants) to extort
Americans, corporations, politicians; for compensation, target a businesses’
competitor; or sell private information gleaned from warrant-less Internet
Surveillance.


If CISPA is passed
allowing NO Warrant private self protected cyber entity spying, some Internet
writers and political activists might be dead-meat under NDAA. Americans” who
write on the Internet or verbally express an opinion against any entity of U.S.
Government or its coalition partners—may under The Defense Authorization Act of
2012—be deemed by U.S. Government (someone likely to engage in, support or
provoke violent acts or threaten National Security)— or (Belligerent) to order
an American writer or activist’s indefinite prison detention.                                                     ]]></description>

I cannot agree more that CISPA is a major threat to online privacy.  I am rather concerned with the issue of privacy and the government&#039;s ongoing efforts to infringe upon our rights. I have authored a blog at http://cdswitchstatement.blogspot.com/2012/05/operation-blackout-won-battle-but-can.html and was wondering if you would care to offer your perspective.
