Bill Would Give DHS Broader Control of Cybersecurity, Follows Corporate-Sponsored MIT Study Recommendations
In December of last year I covered a study conducted by MIT with the help of “advisers” from the exact corporations which would benefit from the implementation of the recommendations of the report, and now it appears that these ideas have made their way all the way to Capitol Hill.

This bill, which is reportedly currently before Congress, would give the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) significantly more monitoring power of the cybersecurity practices of private industries and services which are supposedly part of the United States’ critical infrastructure.

Yeah, so? What you gonna' do about it? Whats anyone going to do about it? NOTHING! Biggest lie ever told was that by using the Internet it would "empower" people to change themselves and the world! The truth is exactly the opposite!

Anybody got a bill number on this? I found two articles but they don't give a bill number. Without it we would be wasting our time to write to our reps in DC. I don't think they know what I'm talking about half the time with the number.
