*"A direct assault on Internet users"* is what the ACLU is calling it.  A
U.S. House committee has already approved HR 1981, a broad new Internet
snooping bill.

*And get this -- it's also authored by SOPA sponsor Lamar Smith. *

They want to force Internet service providers to keep track of and retain
their customers' information --* including your name, address, phone
number, credit card numbers, bank account numbers, and temporarily-assigned
IP addresses.*

The Internet blew away the insiders with our work against SOPA.  Let's do
it again this time:

*Please click here to urge your lawmakers to oppose the snooping bill --
it's already passed through
committee.*<http://act.demandprogress.org/go/469?akid=1193.1792529.a0XerE&t=2>

The ACLU, the EFF, Demand Progress, and 25 other civil liberties and
privacy groups have expressed our opposition to this legislation.

*ISPs would collect and retain your data whether or not you're accused of a
crime. *

Supporters shamelessly dubbed it the "Protecting Children From Internet
Pornographers Act," but our staunchest allies in Congress are calling it
what it is: an all-encompassing Internet snooping bill.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren of California -- a SOPA hero who also led Democratic
opposition to this bill -- said, "It represents a data bank of every
digital act by every American [that would] let us find out where every
single American visited Web sites."

*This legislation is appalling, and it's already passed through committee.
 Will you click here to urge your lawmakers to oppose
it?<http://act.demandprogress.org/go/469?akid=1193.1792529.a0XerE&t=3>

Thanks,

Demand Progress
