UPDATE: President Obama just threatened to veto CISPA! 

Meanwhile, here's what the bill's sponsor is saying about the opposition, according to Hill reporter Brendan Sasso:

@BrendanSasso: Rogers says Silicon Valley CEOs support #CISPA. Describes opposition as 14 year olds in their basement.

Interesting. I used to work for IBM and can see where their motivation is (hint: lucrative military contracts).

The Patriot Act and NDAA got rid of many of the barriers to collecting information on Americans.

I would expand on it but...non-disclosure and all that.

Let me guess; IBM's getting cash in exchange for their service.  Tongue
