While the government is attempting to cast it as a cybersecurity measure, the bill is only designed to allow companies to share your information with the government and other companies. It also allows the government to turn over your information to private companies.

It still seems the only thing the parties can agree on is taking away your rights and establishing control systems to keep you in your place.
