Discussion Draft of HR11 being circulated by the House Judiciary Committee http://www.scribd.com/doc/132249133/House-Judiciary-Committee-discussion-draft

Information regarding #CFAA and #ReformCFAA Educate yourself. This is pertinent to all of us, regardless if you consider your activities online legal or not. https://www.eff.org/search/site/reform%20CFAA

Beginning Wednesday April 3rd we will attempt to influence the decision makers on the House Judicial Committee the strengthening the provisions of the CFAA is not what we the people want. We understand that there is a need for prosecution of those that break the law, however this law is too broad, to open to interpretation and does not help to protect systems and networks from cyber attacks. This law should be reformed to make it more appropriate.

Date of first twitterstorm is Weds April 3rd at 2 PM PDT 5 PM EST 9 PM GMT

This will be done a few times, each new storm will be announced.

Why are rapists and murders receiving less prison time than someone that changes a character in a URL? #ReformCFAA

No criminal liability for people who want to exercise their right to navigate online #ReformCFAA #CFAA

Reform the #CFAA Remove overly broad language used to prosecute http://tinyurl.com/bsga5rm #ReformCFAA #CFAA

The #CFAA punishes too many low-level offenses as felonies #ReformCFAA

Repeal the computer fraud provision of the #CFAA #ReformCFAA

Changing a device ID or IP address cannot by itself be the basis of a #CFAA or wire fraud conviction #ReformCFAA

We call on you to support "Aaron's Law" to change the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act #CFAA #ReformCFAA

We call on you to facilitate anonymous speech and enhance users' privacy on the Internet #ReformCFAA #CFAA

Stop the senseless biased prosecution of people like #AaronSwartz #ReformCFAA

Open up closed, entrenched systems that prevent ordinary people from having access to the worlds knowledge #ReformCFAA

Stop the horrible misuse of the #CFAA to prosecute people like #AaronSwartz #ReformCFAA

We the people agree with the @EFF the existing laws must be changed https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2013/01/effs-initial-improvements-aarons-law-computer-crime-reform #ReformCFAA

Many people are liable under the #CFAA that should not be prosecuted! #ReformCFAA

#ReformCFAA Engage Senator @AlFranken, and @SenatorLeahy who understand and support efforts #CFAA

New draft of #CFAA would increase the maximum sentencing charges Aaron Swartz would have faced, from 5yrs to 20yrs each. #ReformCFAA

If we do not act, Rather than fix #CFAA, congress will make the bill much worse. #ReformCFAA

The new draft of #CFAA is a step backwards in the fight for Internet freedom #CFAA

Under the New #CFAA bill, Racketeering is added as a possible charge. #ReformCFAA.

The new #CFAA bill allows for prosecution of individuals accessing networks they have permissions to. #ReformCFAA

Under the proposed bill, "Talking" about computer crimes could be charged as "conspiring" and liable to full offense charges. #ReformCFAA

Rapists, Molesters, and Murderers face lesser penalties at times than some "hackers" Scape Goats? #ReformCFAA #CFAA

Under the new Bill #CFAA Swartz could have faced 80yrs. That is a lifetime. #ReformCFAA

Tweet as much as you can to the group of people listed below, they are the House Judicial Committee members that are currently considering STRENGTHENING the provisions of the CFAA to give prosecutors broader powers to prosecute, and judges more leeway to impose far greater prison sentences. if you have bash and t by @sferik installed you can run this simple one line script to message all of the twitter accounts listed below use this command: (make sure and remove all line breaks)

cat file1 | while read line1; do cat file2 | while read line2; do t update $line1 $line2; sleep 300; done; done

This will tweet one tweet and one person every 5 minutes, go through all the tweets and then move to the next person if you don't care about your twitter account being suspended you can adjust the sleep time to a lower number, the number reflects the number of seconds the script will wait until it progresses save the names below into file1 and then save the tweets above into a file2
