Congress votes on several cybersecurity bills

I try to stay away from politics in this blog, but a recent item I saw in another blog I have to pass along.

The original item is HERE.

This week, the House is voting on several cybersecurity bills.

Most important is the controversial CISPA (Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act).  On the surface, it looks pretty good, as it sets down standards for government and industry to share data on cyber threats.  But there are issues with privacy data being shared by industry (especially social networks) with the government.
