The bill is evil, no doubt, but I can't help but think this crap already exists. Our ISPs and internet infrastructure are essentially nationalized for the purpose of spying/information collection. We found this out with Snowden/NSA. Our corrupt intelligence agencies can get any information they want. This just provides the legal backing, more or less retrofitting things. It makes me wonder if this is in preparation for a larger conflict with Russia or other enemies. US needs control of the propaganda mechanism, needs support of the people. Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus, we just write covert complicated laws now, with bi-partisan support, because both sides get their money from the same people.
