Their advocacy of public-private partnerships is interesting:
> Creating successful public-private relationships—in which tools, knowledge, and intelligence are shared—is the ultimate key to success in addressing cyber threats and is among the highest priorities of the FBI.
It sounds like a page out of the CISPA propaganda handbook, and it seems to indicate that CISPA will eventually pass.

- nknighthb 13y agoIt's actually a point against CISPA. Its authoritarian advocates keep whining about how impossible it is for private companies to cooperate with law enforcement on security issues, yet here we are, no CISPA, and yet Microsoft and the FBI are cooperating.
