"CISA passed the Senate today in a 74-21 vote. The bill is fundamentally flawed due to its broad immunity clauses, vague definitions, and aggressive spying authorities. The bill now moves to a conference committee despite its inability to address problems that caused recent highly publicized computer data breaches, like unencrypted files, poor computer architecture, un-updated servers, and employees (or contractors) clicking malware links.

The government could potentially use this bill to directly/indirectly attack bitcoin related websites. but maybe they wont

Never give the government the benefit of the doubt; especially when it comes the U.S. government. Undecided
