Congress recently passed the Cyber Security Information Sharing Act (CISA) by adding the text into a consolidated spending bill. While the law does not require internet service providers to log and record all internet traffic, it makes it easier for private companies to share information with government agencies regarding alleged threats. The bill also creates a framework for federal agencies to receive information from private companies regarding these threats.
However, this bill changes nothing about the way Private Internet Access (PIA) operates or our commitment to customer privacy. PIA does not participate in or take advantage of any incentives offered to private companies to disclose and share user activity with governmental agencies. We continue to monitor pending privacy and cybersecurity bills and stand against any legislation that fails to protect a free and open internet.
