Netflix Could Be Classified As a 'Cybersecurity Threat' Under New CISPA Rules

Quote:
"A 'threat,' according to the bill, is anything that makes information unavailable or less available. So, high-bandwidth uses of some types of information make other types of information that go along the same pipe less available,"
I guess the powers that be are whining because the important information on us is hindered by certain sessions that uses high bandwidth like streaming videos, torrent downloads and etc.
