Yeah... don't start celebrating yet, this bill hasn't been protested as much yet, but is at least ten times worse. From the article:

the firm that sells you Internet access would be required to track all of your Internet activity and save it for 18 months, along with your name, the address where you live, your bank account numbers, your credit card numbers, and IP addresses you've been assigned.
Click to expand...

If that goes through somehow, kiss goodbye to any privacy at all, because it means the government could in theory access your name, address, bank account, credit cards, IP numbers used and internet history. Ridiculous or what?

And I thought the UK has too much surveilance, yet this is even worse! Poor US people...
 
Oh yes. This thing.

They hide it by playing the "Think about the Children Card".......

Lamar Smith hates our freedom of internet privacy....
 
I hate the idea of people trying to regulate the internet, something of which wasn't meant to be in the first place. Also, I'd bet a whole lot that these people who write the bills don't even use computers, let alone the internet. If this happens, I'm done on the net. Not because im a pirate, but because they can't trust most of the internet citizens so they have to track everyone. I am sorry if my grammar is off key. I am tired for the fact that I just had a son born yesterday. so im tired. lul
 
*Anger tears coming from eyes.* Why the hell can't they just leave us alone? I mean really having access to ALL of our info. Isn't having our IP enough for them?
 
This is ridiculous! No, outrageous! Can't they just leave us alone!
If this passes they'll have are Credit cards, Bank accounts and IP Number!.......Just no.....
This just isn't right....
 
I think what they mean is that if they get to watch everything you do- they'll start making strange connections to things that are not even a tiny bit relevant to each other.
 
It's not like they can't have your credit card number if they want it... to begin with. Your IP isn't exactly top secret information, either. Just saiyan.

I'll never give up on the internet. They may make it a pain in the ass, but god dammit, the internet is forever.
 
Something new always comes up after the other never succeeds. Argh.. Do they really want these things to pass that badly?

And yeah, they're going to ask you to give in all of your info and sh*t so they can do whatever they want to ruin your life like take your money or break in your house and beat the sh*t outta you when ever they feel like it. <--- *Ahem* I was only joking on that. <__<

This is really bad I say we all protest some how on this site or on other sites but we shall not rest until they give up trying
 
Before we know it all the governments will want security cameras in our flippin' TOILETS trying to find out what kind of poop comes out. Honestly, there's no privacy anymore unless you actually ARE one of these government guys. And I can see much of the internet getting screwed over and then all of a sudden we all go extinct because we can't Google 'how to milk a cow' anymore. Do this, numbers in alcohol consumption, rape, murder, suicide well everything could go up. nd online play? Forget it. People won't spend a good $100 at least on an internet connection just to play people over the net.
