Read this bill very carefully. Line by line. Take it apart and look at the pieces.

It would provide a means of shutting down any website at any time for little or no reason as well as for unpublicized reasons. All they have to do is cite 'national security' and tell FOIA questioners to get lost.

Let's make them try a little harder to get it right.
