blottsie writes: Sen. Ron Wyden has led the fight against the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act (CISA), which the Senate advanced on Thursday in a 84-14 vote. In a new interview with the Daily Dot, Wyden explains why privacy advocates call CISA a "surveillance bill," and discusses why an amendment from Sen. Whitehouse could make CISA more problematic for Internet users' civil liberties.

    Never forget that Wyden was the primary reason we are not living with SOPA today. Too bad he is outnumbered by the other senators who are more interested in padding their bank accounts rather than serving the American people.
