WHAT IS “CISPA”?

 

CISPA stands for The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, a network and Internet security bill written by Rep. Mike Rogers (R-MI) and Dutch Ruppersberger (D-MD) (H.R. 624). The bill purports to allow companies and the federal government to share information to prevent or defend against network and other Internet attacks. However, the bill grants broad new powers, allowing companies to identify and obtain “threat information” by looking at your private information. It is written so broadly that it allows companies to hand over large swaths of personal information to the government with no judicial oversight—effectively creating a “cybersecurity” loophole in all existing privacy laws. via: https://www.eff.org/cybersecurity-bill-faq

DO YOU EVEN LINUX BRO? (there's actually a way to do this in windows too -- see the sites for the things)

 

If you have bash and t by @sferik installed you can run this simple one line script to message all of the twitter accounts listed below use this command: (make sure and remove all line breaks)

 

cat file2 | while read line2; do cat file1 | while read line1; do t update "$line1 $line2"; sleep 90; done; done

 

You can also send non-drected tweets by issuing the following command

 

cat file3 | while read line 3; do t update "$line3"; sleep 90; done

 

Further documentation on installing these tools:

 

https://github.com/sferik/t

 

(includes links to installing ruby on linux, mac (lol hipsters) and (ugh) windows)

 

Make sure and remove the line breaks from the tweets you plan on using:

 

awk NF file.old > file.new

 

mv file.new > file2

 

(or file3) etc....you should get the idea, this isn't linux class...

If you're going to do targeted tweets then this list is for you, it not its total FUD and can be ignored, these are the people that we want to deliver this message too, they will typically respond to "if you vote for this, I vote you out of office" sorts of messages, except in the case of Barack, since he doesn't give a fuck and can't be voted out.

Please preserve privacy and liberty on the Internet. #VoteNoCISPA

 

We need a judge's oversight to protect our privacy and a number of other rights. #VoteNoCISPA removes this

 

The same Internet that terrorists, spies and criminals exploit for nefarious purposes is the same Internet WE ALL USE DAILY. #VoteNoCISPA

 

Lawmakers are pushing a dangerous bill that would threaten Americans' privacy while immunizing companies from any liability. #VoteNoCISPA

 

#VoteNoCISPA resembles a modern, capitalistic version of govt & industry practices once common in the (former) USSR

 

#VoteNoCISPA will not ensure online security, but can prove costly to the companies it empowers

 

#VoteNoCispa Our privacy and freedom of speech are not for sale to corporate lobbyists!

 

#VoteNoCISPA will guarantee we have absolutely NO privacy.

 

Privacy is SACRED! #VoteNoCISPA will KILL it! Companies won't be required to strip private info of online users.

 

Is this the USA or the Republic Of China? #VoteNoCISPA

 

Until the iron curtain fell the US Govt & commerce opposed this sort of paranoid-based privacy infringement #VoteNoCISPA

 

#VoteNoCISPA because patriotic Americans oppose secretive & cozy anti-public relations between commerce & the government.

 

#VoteNoCISPA contains terms and ambiguities which can cost online businesses revenue resulting from public fear & distrust

 

Without the ability to privately conduct ourselves online, we are being denied a fundamental right #VoteNoCISPA

 

Why are you denying me my inalienable rights that have been guaranteed to me in the constitution? #VoteNoCISPA

 

The US government has no rights to monitor my private life, or my activities, this bill is fundamentally flawed #VoteNoCISPA

 

Not only will this bill infringe upon the rights of US citizens, it will infringe upon the rights of all persons #VoteNoCISPA

 

This bill is a violation of the EU privacy and human rights law, it violates international law, and the constitution #VoteNoCISPA

 

It is incredibly irresponsible to support and align yourself with the descimation of civil liberty #VoteNoCISPA

 

A yes vote today, means a no vote tomorrow for you, all politicians that support this will be voted out of office #VoteNoCISPA

 

I do not support any representative that supports the erosion of my civil liberties #VoteNoCISPA

 

A yes vote for this bill, is a no vote for freedom #VoteNoCISPA

 

You took an oath to uphold and defend the constitution, a vote for this bill violates that oath #VoteNoCISPA

 

The debate for our civil liberties cannot be held behind closed doors, we demand transparency! #VoteNoCISPA
