Hello all,

Fight for the Future has sent an update on CISPA, a bill from last year
that would make it easier for internet service providers to share private
information with the U.S. government.

More information is below, as well as Fight for the Future's website:

We just got the official word that CISPA is back.

> CISPA would let corporations share all of your private, personal
> information with the government... with no restrictions.
>
> Last year the bill passed the House in a whirlwind, before any of us had
> time to mount a real opposition. We ended up stopping it in the Senate, but
> we can't make the same mistake twice! Congress needs to hear a strong,
> clear message from Internet users. Immediately.
