As reported earlier, today Obama will unleash his latest executive order, one which will set the stage for “information sharing and analysis organizations” (ISAOs) — or, in political jargon “hubs where companies share cyber threat data with each other and with the Department of Homeland Security.” In regular parlance, what Obama will do is merely codify the second coming of the Patriot Act, which as Reuters put it, is “legislation to require more information-sharing and limit any legal liability for companies that share too much.” In other words, the Kiss You Privacy Forever order. But don’t worry: it is for your own protection. You See, thanks to these ISAOs the North Korean swat team of hackers will never again reveal that the management of Sony Pictures is a bunch of racists and that they make such bad movies that they need the US government to help sell them.
Sorry about that, wrong parallel universe.
Heeeere’s Obama!
