Bill Would Grant President Unprecedented Cyber-security Powers

Johnny Bravo · Apr 9, 2009

The Cybersecurity Act of 2009 introduced in the Senate would allow the president to shut down private Internet networks. The legislation also calls for the government to have the authority to demand security data from private networks without regard to any provision of law, regulation, rule or policy restricting such access.

Because, apparently the Constitution means nothing anymore.
