CISPA: Politics Alert, EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!!!!

This is a real problem, and I'm ashamed to think that my country's Gov't tried this once, nay, twice, but I'm even more ashamed to find that they're, idiotically, trying it AGAIN! I can't believe what this nation has come to! D:< And even worse, our representatives are not even listening to those of us who contact them saying "NO!", simply regarding us all with a detached kind of amusement saying, "Oh, look at you saying no to something that's going to be passed anyways."! And the REAL rich part, whereas businesses like Google spoke out against the likes of SOPA and PIPA, guess what? They're BACKING CISPA!!!! D:< EVERYONE should pay attention to this, whether you live in the US or not. If this passes in the US, what do you think is going to stop the governments of other nations from trying the same/similar thing, eh? This is scary and really needs attention worldwide. Unfortunately, unlike SOPA and PIPA, which had little backing and a LOT of opposition, this bill has a frighteningly good chance of passing, as it has all kinds of backing, including backing from major tech companies like Google, as well as a fair few major defense contractors that have a LOT of money to wave around, and we all know that when it comes to politics, even in the US, money speaks WAY louder than the voice of the people.
