Rep. Mike Rogers Dismisses CISPA Opponents "14 Year Old Tweeter On the Internet"

Posted by samzenpus on from the foot-in-mouth dept.

gale the simple writes "Mike Rodgers made a minor splash Tuesday when he decided to liken CISPA opponents to 14-year-old basement dwellers. The EFF, naturally, picked up on this generalization and asked everyone to let the representative know that it is not just the 14-year-olds that care about privacy."

    I find it humorous that the politician can't even insult us properly.

    It's either 14 year olds, OR dudes living in their parent's basement.

    Nonetheless, privacy is important to me because I'm in a better position to protect my children online as they begin to use the Internet more and more.
