USA: Act today against CISPA spying bill - your freedom depends on it

Stop Cyber Spying - a week of action against CISPA

https://cyberspying.eff.org/

Please participate. CISPA is worse than SOPA/ACTA and it already passed the House of Representatives in the US. It affects everyone whose internet traffic crosses US servers. Basically everyone. It's a Big Brother move to remove due process and allow spying on anyone's internet traffic anytime, for any alleged reason. 

Related: Find out if your representatives voted for it and complain to them and the corporate sponsors named. They deserve your contempt.

The Senate and those companies need to hear the noise we make about this online and on their phones, in the next few days. We can't depend on the President to veto it, because his track record on civil liberties is very poor so far.

News: Microsoft just withdrew their support.

Google's new "privacy" policy - Washington Post explains.

Some Google employees are upset, but boss says, my way or the highway.

Here are some things you can do.

Get Firefox
Get DuckDuckGo search plugin

Log out of Google, YouTube, Picassa, Blogger, Gmail, G+, and so on, when you're done using one, so you're not dragging your browsing history around for them to collect.

Sure, it's a tiny hassle to log back in, but you can keep your passwords in a password safe app on your phone.

(You're not reusing your passwords, are you?? Good. Because passwords keep getting posted publicly on the internet.)

Your activities are being collected by DoubleClick, which Google owns also, and Google ads, even when you are not on a Google-owned website.

So get an ad blocker too. Adblock Plus is great.
