I am a Republican.. But this man, this Mike Rogers, he shames us all.

He should resign, and then cast himself into a sea of raging redditors for his misdeeds.

Increasing information sharing? Sounds like a juicy target for the next generation of hackers to get past this "new and advanced" security technology...SEEMS LEGIT RIGHT?!

Defeats the purpose of the internet. It was created and instituted as a means to share information among many users over great distances at great speed. The internet should not be ruled by any one nation but should have it's own governing body separate and without intrusion of any particular government.

Disagree the internet does not NEED a "governing body" and if there were one it would be controlled by government. The internet needs to remain open and free. Any form of governance will lead to more.

I feel like this article talks more about what the executive order doesn't do than what it does... Information sharing... thats kind of vague and what was stopping people from sharing this information before?!

The order will "strengthen our cyber defenses by increasing information sharing, and developing standards to protect our national security, our jobs, and our privacy," Obama said during his State of the Union address.

Our privacy? He just signed on another 5 years of the Patriot Act of which he was supposedly against and he's worried about our privacy? What a hypocrite!

Dems will still love this President no matter how many rights of theirs he takes away. Somehow they will blame George Bush.... at least in their minds... if they have minds.

Bah, as an outsider, I despise you hating on Obama.
Whether it be a republican or a democrat, Romney or Obama or Bush, this is typical USA bullshit. This kind of fucking power hungry control lust is just a response for your country being a very weak world power in terms of cyber security, oh and continuing to support outdated business models (hollywood, record labels). So, what does a someone with that amount of power? seize control. Basic human psychology, anyway

Blame your stupid legislations, not the man.

@azraa, I totally agree with you, these idiots are trying to blame everything on Obama even though it's their technology firms that opted for it...

Did you read the article??


The executive order doesn't propose new regulations that target private businesses, nor does it seemingly rewrite privacy laws by allowing companies to share confidential information with government agencies without permission.

Republicans are still wishing to do exactly that in their own bill called the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, or CISPA. Obama's order has, however, eased the pressure on Congress to progress with the controversial bill. Still, it'll be reintroduced on February 13 by House Intelligence committee chairman Mike Rogers, a Michigan Republican.

clueless Obama fanboys are worse than clueless republican drones.
Obama has already come out in support of CISPA and has encouraged congress to pass it so that he can sign it. STOP WATCHING CORPORATE MEDIA and maybe you will begin to recover from the brainwashing that has turned you into Democrat-vs-republican (us vs them) idiot

Fortunately "executive orders" only apply to the Executive Branch of the Fed. They mean nothing to sovereign individuals, and should be ignored outright by anyone who isn't a slave. I've sworn no oath to this dickhead, he swore to uphold our rights and now he just shits all over them. An eye for an eye, a shit for a shit.
