Yes, you're spot on here. It might still be ineffective, almost certainly so, but because of existing laws, it's almost all internal to the federal government rather than L-C or CISPA affecting our relationships with Facebook, Google, or any other private company with mass storage of our user data.

It also won't mean startups need to collect user data in case the feds come calling.

Very insightful comments throughout the discussion, thanks, Thomas.
