"The Cloud Act" The Bill that Congress is going to slip under the radar and get approved.
congress.gov
> This week, Senators Hatch, Graham, Coons, and Whitehouse introduced a bill that diminishes the data privacy of people around the world.
> The Clarifying Overseas Use of Data (CLOUD) Act expands American and foreign law enforcement’s ability to target and access people’s data across international borders in two ways. >First, the bill creates an explicit provision for U.S. law enforcement (from a local police department to federal agents in Immigration and Customs Enforcement) to access “the contents of a wire or electronic communication and any record or other information” about a person regardless of where they live or where that information is located on the globe. In other words, U.S. police could compel a service provider—like Google, Facebook, or Snapchat—to hand over a user’s content and metadata, even if it is stored in a foreign country, without following that foreign country’s privacy laws.[1]
> Second, the bill would allow the President to enter into “executive agreements” with foreign governments that would allow each government to acquire users’ data stored in the other country, without following each other’s privacy laws.
> For example, because U.S.-based companies host and carry much of the world’s Internet traffic, a foreign country that enters one of these executive agreements with the U.S. to could potentially wiretap people located anywhere on the globe (so long as the target of the wiretap is not a U.S. person or located in the United States) without the procedural safeguards of U.S. law typically given to data stored in the United States, such as a warrant, or even notice to the U.S. government. This is an enormous erosion of current data privacy laws.
GOODBYE INTERNET AS WE KNOW IT
> This bill would also moot legal proceedings now before the U.S. Supreme Court. In the spring, the Court will decide whether or not current U.S. data privacy laws allow U.S. law enforcement to serve warrants for information stored outside the United States. The case, United States v. Microsoft (often called “Microsoft Ireland”), also calls into question principles of international law, such as respect for other countries territorial boundaries and their rule of law.
> Notably, this bill would expand law enforcement access to private email and other online content, yet the Email Privacy Act, which would create a warrant-for-content requirement, has still not passed the Senate, even though it has enjoyed unanimous support in the House for the past two years.
> The CLOUD Act would give unlimited jurisdiction to U.S. law enforcement over any data controlled by a service provider, regardless of where the data is stored and who created it. This applies to content, metadata, and subscriber information – meaning private messages and account details could be up for grabs. The breadth of such unilateral extraterritorial access creates a dangerous precedent for other countries who may want to access information stored outside their own borders, including data stored in the United States.
> EFF argued on this basis (among others) against unilateral U.S. law enforcement access to cross-border data, in our Supreme Court amicus brief in the Microsoft Ireland case.
> When data crosses international borders, U.S. technology companies can find themselves caught in the middle between the conflicting data laws of different nations: one nation might use its criminal investigation laws to demand data located beyond its borders, yet that same disclosure might violate the data privacy laws of the nation that hosts that data.
> Thus, U.S. technology companies lobbied for and received provisions in the CLOUD Act allowing them to move to quash or modify U.S. law enforcement orders for extraterritorial data. The tech companies can quash a U.S. order when the order does not target a U.S. person and might conflict with a foreign government’s laws. To do so, the company must object within 14 days, and undergo a complex “comity” analysis – a procedure where a U.S. court must balance the competing interests of the U.S. and foreign governments.

fuuuuuuu
The bill changes section 230 of the CDA, the law that protects website owners from liability for what their users post, to carve out an exception for instances of human trafficking. Site owners can be held liable and subject to a criminal fine or imprisonment for not more than 20 years.net.
yeah its not like pussies are going to do anything when this passes.
tyranny has been happening for years and you cowards haven't done shit about it but cry.
WHAT THIS MEANS IN PRACTICE IS THAT ALL IT WOULD TAKE FOR A WEBSITE TO BE SHUT DOWN AND ITS OWNER ARRESTED IS A FALSE FLAG OPERATION OF SPOOKS ENGAGING IN HUMAN TRAFFICKING. ALL U.S. SITES WOULD BECOME FORCED TO IMPOSE EXTREMELY HEAVY-HANDED MODERATION AND CENSORSHIP OR SHUT DOWN ENTIRELY, Sup Forums INCLUDED.
THIS BILL HAS STRONG BIPARTISAN SUPPORT AND WILL LIKELY PASS UNLESS HEAVY RESISTANCE CAN BE ORGANIZED QUICKLY AND ON A LARGE SCALE.
Voting on the House Floor is scheduled for THIS TUESDAY. Start spreading this information on as many websites as you can before it's too late. If you know anyone with a large audience try and get them to spread the word. If this bill becomes law then it's GAME OVER for free speech on the internet.
This wouldn't be happening if we were sensible and elected Bernie
Nah I've learned to enjoy the feel of shadow state cock in my ass.
Hnnnrr big gov knows best.
If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to worry about.
Bump. Don't let this slide
China basically does this already
We're just catching up
Where's the tl;dr version
this, it's basically like a buttplug at this point
Bumping. Fuck these niggers
bump
Things are already being done. Go to shiftnrg.org decentralized encrypted web already here and it's only s matter of time before we actually start using it.
The government wants to spy on us through the internet? Fine, we'll make an internet that works differently.
bump
Explain for a brainlet what this all means, flag unrelated
Will everyone know I fap to traps now?
Wtf, i hate the U.S. now
thanks user just bought 100k
It means that there is no stopping total big brother over the internet so we are just going to have to use already existing tech to circumvent their spying efforts.

How does this not violate the 4th amendment?
Why are you shilling this? What's in it for you? No one works for free
That is really interdasting
It's been fun, lads.
Good, let it all burn down. Throw some nukes all over the planet while you're at it.
>rights
>No one works for free
>??
This website won Trump an election and actively shilled for various other causes. A free net seems something worth making people aware of nob nose
Bernie was never an option.
Oh look, another hysteric imbecile speculating on what the law will be used for.
Youtube, Google, Twitter and all these cancerous kike hives will have to either shutdown or remove the degenerates.. Oh what a tragedy.
Go cry
The only way to win is not to play. Drop out of the system however you can
fact : there are more heteros fapping to trap than homos
Everyone knows already.
Sup Forums did nothing for Trump except being a total nuisance.
99.9% of the voters have no idea what this website is.
I believe in the project plus I'm invested in it. It's tied to a cryptocurrency but you can use the network without having anything to do with crypto. If you don't believe in crypto then that's perfectly fine because not owning any Bitcoin or any of the other cryptos including the SHIFT token will not inhibit you from using the service in any way.
It makes sense to tie a project like this to a crypto. There are other decentralized encrypted networks you can use and that are currently operating but without a monetary incentive to run nodes they will never fair well. Check out zeronet if crypto rubs you the wrong way it's pretty much the same thing, but i think in the future projects like SHIFT are going to be more popular and thus faster.
People are so up in arms about new internet spying regulations and threats to net neutrality and they should be, but we already have more secure and spying/censorship resilient resources available to us that work well so I'm not even that worried.
or they think its something terrible and obscene
I started in 8ch and they think its bad here
my gf thinks Sup Forums is filled with hackers and first class losers
she's half right, not that bad
Which half?
>first class losers
TOP KEK
Nothing new under the sun
I know it’s not gay but other people may not
Get #CloudAct trending on twatter
That's not even the worst of it.
Now site owners will be legally responsible for users "bullying" other users.
This is going to be some insane censorship if it passes. Of course, all the big mainstream platforms will be immune because lolxd
>coons

I've already offered a solution to this:

Hey, when a qt3.14 passable trap have the will, discipline and patience to go through transitioning/HRT/feminization, they deserve a fap from us.

If you're not browsing Sup Forums through at least 4 proxies you are fucking retarded because everyone who has ever viewed this website is going to Guantanamo Bay in a few years.
so this was david hogg and his kikelet kids were distracting us from, well there goes our freedom of speech online, how hard would it be to make a new internet.
Ouroboros
Remember the new revalations? How is this new?
what are some good proxies
yes the police and millitary are going to spend billions and billions of dollars, just to catch millions of people including some famous who lurk and post here just over their posts. Nothing will happen its a huge waste of fuckin money just think about it the police and fbi and cia niggers have better shit to do.
you mean to say all the cianiggers, deep state and shadow government are going to gitmo in a few years.
this is the final battle and we have never lost. we will not break our track record, newfaggot.

>CIA will read Indian shitposts
Kek.
At least you will find out who is really white in jail while sharing a jail cell with a German, a Russian and a Canadian.
Just fuck my 4th amendment up senpai
GUYS PIC ReLATE D PIC RELATED before its too late
This is unironically what I think as this sounds like something the kikes would use to fight "antisemetic" remarks on the internet, or really just exposing how fucking evil kikes are.
Arrest all the people actively aware, send all the young and able to go die in war against Iran and ride out the death of the white race.
I feel like this place has been gaslit and we're all about to receive a very rude awakening
bump
>fake and gay kys shlomo
Wow, some of this is really old and bad advice.
Seriously people, DON'T use proxies! The "I'm behind 9 proxies" is funny because it's not only ridiculous but incorrect. Hiding behind proxies is like using duct tape to lock your front door.
If it's anonymity you seek, use the TOR network with the Tor Browser Bundle.
>The only way to win is not to play
No, the way you win is rising up and purging the corrupt scum from the top of society.
Fuck off with your retreat philosophy.
They will come for you eventually, too.
Revolution or bust.
>use the TOR network with the Tor Browser Bundle.
Wrong, its been compromised and isn't enough for true anonymity. What need to be done is, we need to stop using there platforms. We must build our own platforms/media, its the only way. If they make it illegal or ban that as well, well i don't see anything changing for the better short of war.
>doesn't discuss digital fingerprinting and user agent spoofing
If anything, doing all of that makes you stick out MORE. You will stick out like a sore thumb, especially not having a Facefuck account.
i see no problem with this
most of it is good adivce, esp if youre still on the chrome level. I have mot of the apps in, i use a ""private"" search engine and email. Tor doesnt work to post on Sup Forums anywah, so i wont use it. Also, i dont want to stumble upon pizza
i honestly cant tell if thats sarcastic or not, hopefully it tho that last comment
That didn't work for bin Laden. It's already too late. Our philosophy should be peeing into an ocean of piss. A chilling effect on politically incorrect speech is the worst outcome and the one we need to avoid at all costs.
Do you honestly think they don't already do this?
actually the true way to win is to sew mistrust in the system by spamming it with bots, fake accounts, and false info. you cannot get everyone to leave these services, but you certainly can add more "users" to it. spoofing technology can never be allowed to fall behind algorithms. ai must drive false data as much as it drives correct data
> Amerimutts keep passing bills to spy on its own people even more
> Mass shootings keep happening every few months
really activates my caguamas desu amigos
>i honestly cant tell if thats sarcastic or not
>he doesn't know they can profile users based purely on browsing patterns alone
>he doesn't know that websites get information about browsers and things like adblock and custom settings basically are a unique identifier
Isn't that what all those faggots said about net neutrality? Hmm still no £5 per Facebook post. I love how it's called the cloud act too, like fuck it the metrofaggots will suck that shit up
Okay can we just kick government and law out of the internet already? They built it? Okay great, lets build a new network. Oh wait, theyll try to worm their way around that too. How do we evict them? Build worldwide encryption?
bipped
On one hand this is awful, but on the other perhaps shit like i2p will grow bigger then

Somehow, I'm not surprised.
This is just stupid. Do you have any idea the amount of information they need to wade through to find anything of value? Watch:
I'm thinking about a terror attack.
Boom! Just wasted someone's time reading that. Even after filtering the data, humans will need to review it. Then what, connect millions of dots of information to try to find a single terror attack?
These niggers are just going to do what they always do -- warehouse the data and never look at it. Maybe they hope that some day AI can doing the searching for them.
t. Not a fed. Concerned citizen.
>t. Not a fed. Concerned citizen.
Sure thing shill.
>he thinks this is just about "terror attacks"
>he thinks AI isn't already being developed
The "Nothing to hide. Nothing to fear" crowd don't understand the long game. It's about power control. Even if you don't personally care if the FBI wants to take a look at my your reddit upboats, you have to realize that doing it unchecked on every single American is too much power for some schmucks who are coached to repress you. The state and corporate American hate you and want you gone and they're getting more and more power and control over you every day.
The government doesn't follow its own laws, so if they learn something about you that they don't like, they might punish you even if you follow every law and and are certain that everything you do or say is viewed favorably by the government.
The error in the "nothing to hide, nothing to fear" argument is in assuming that the government will never use information gathered by surveillance to punish/oppress a law-abiding, well-intentioned person who has nothing to hide just because you represent something they don't like, especially when it gets in the wrong hands.
Oh look this thread again
