CISPA, a bill currently wending its way through Congress, codifies this sort of practice even further. If signed into law, CISPA will allow the government to collect all sorts of personal data from corporations, without any oversight at all, and will protect corporations from lawsuits based on their handing over that data.

They'll see an unprecedented rise in domestic hacking if they piss off the wrong people.

That's the only reason I'm not more upset about stories like this.  I know they're just pushing us closer to the digital revolution, when the white hats and black hats all team up against the ass hats.

That's got to be a t-shirt, "Better black hat than ass hat."  Bet you could make a decent profit at DEFCON shilling those.
