Thom Hartmann: CISPA...the beginning of the end of online privacy?



Thom Hartmann talks with Steve Bucci, Ph.D. , Senior Research Fellow, Defense and Homeland Security-the Heritage Foundation Website: www.heritage.org about the Cybersecurity Information Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA), introduced by House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence chairman Mike Rogers (R-MI) and ranking member Dutch Ruppersberger (D-MD). Under CISPA, the U.S. government will be able to share information about incoming cyber attacks — that includes providing American companies details on malware, viruses, and other malicious code that pose a threat to their security. But will it mean the end to our online privacy?

(A caller later brought up how Bucci frequently blinked when talking, suggesting that he's unsure about if he's telling the truth. So if you're curious, watch the video in addition to listening to the audio of interview.)

This is about as fascist as it gets!
