S.773 - Cybersecurity Act of 2009 Print E-mail

S.773 - Cybersecurity Act of 2009 
A bill to ensure the continued free flow of commerce within the United States and with its global trading partners through secure cyber communications ... Open Congress; Linked on September 5, 2009

This is an excerpt for a September 4, 2009 press release from the Electronic Frontier Foundation:

Back in April, we expressed serious concerns about the Cybersecurity Act of 2009, a bill by Senators Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) and Olympia Snowe (R-ME) that sought to give the federal government unprecedented power over the Internet. The bill was redrafted (behind closed doors), and a "new" version has recently been circulated.Unfortunately, the changes seem to be nothing more than cosmetic. Like the original bill, the new version appears to give the President carte blanche to decide which networks and systems -- including nongovernmental, private networks and systems -- count as "critical infrastructure information systems or networks." And there still appears to be language that would permit the President to shut down the Internet.
