Congress has a specific target in mind, but that does not mean you should not be concerned about your privacy. I posted this on my blog, this is an excerpt, you should keep in mind that their primary concern is to subvert democracy in any form:

“The greater threat [to privacy] is from the attacker coming in and trying to make something public that shouldn’t be.” – John Engler, Business Roundtable

I think this is a complete sidestep to the issue, the issue is that these companies and the government do not want anything they do which is wrong and damaging to individuals and public exposed. They want a free pass so that no conscience can see the light of day, they want to penalize anyone who exposes their activity regardless of who they have harmed with their activity, both corporations and the government – they want to throw accountability to the wind so they can do as they please with no penalty. They don’t want to be accountable to the people, whose public funds they use (they want to be public “servants” while they make you serve like slaves). The “cyber-crime” is just a side issue, they put something having to do with harming children to make the other activity (exposing their dirty activity by pulling it out of cyberspace) look really heinous by written association (they always use kids to stand behind, like they care), and threw in foreign espionage activity for good measure.

As an example, we can see what representative Rogers wants, by what he wanted done to Bradley Manning – death penalty for treason, or to endlessly torture someone to death – specifically for pulling their recorded activity off of the internet for all to see (the evidence), they want to criminalize it with severe penalties. They not only want impunity for needless wars, but impunity for those who supply what is needed for the war – corporations, and this is just one example, it can virtually be anything harmful to the public. They want to keep the propaganda machine going with no exposure (corporations/government, does not matter which or both).

They want to do what they are doing to Julian Assange as a matter of course – big time, for anyone else who wants to expose corporate or government activity in a similar manner. They want to criminalize dissent if it exposes their activity, whereas an individual can be investigated and evidence be brought against them for criminal activity, they do not want any person(s) to uncover what they do (government, corporations) and make them pay a penalty (I can understand why, because they are congenital thieves and mass murderers!). The issue is that we have both a criminal government and corporations. They want to resume assassinations and imprisonments on a large scale against dissent, against anyone who opposes the corporate/government (they are virtually indistinguishable at this point, it is like a revolving door out of corporations into government and back again).

They want you to be quiet, they want you to die without a whimper as they enact their fascist policies (because that is what fascism is, the complete melding of business and government – and the consequent attempts to silence protest by any means necessary), because that is what this is – it is a fascist bill, it is a Nazi bill. They want you to remain silent as they plunge a knife into democracy – don’t let them do it!!!
