CISPA Passed?

[Rocker64]

I've heard information about the "Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act" or CISPA has passed the house vote.

I know very little about this, but I've heard it happened on thursday, people are already getting ready to do the whole "Blackout" thing like they did last year for SOPA on April 22nd.

Not sure if this is all true, but thought it was worth mentioning since we don't have a topic on this yet.
