    #HR6729 is described as involving voluntary data sharing, but it also includes language from a section of the #PatriotAct that the government has used to warrantlessly demand customer information from thousands of companies.

        #HR6729 applies #PatriotAct language to new categories of information, giving the government more power to engage in warrantless data collection and sharing—including on Americans.

        #HR6729 also invites due process violations. The bill allows nonprofits to go to banks and accuse people of serious crimes, while being shielded from liability.

        Even if the accused is innocent and never charged with a crime, their reputation may be destroyed, and banks may choose to close their accounts, effectively blocking them from the financial system.

        #HR6729 can even protect disclosures that were not made in good faith. Someone could share a false accusation and still be immune.

        #HR6729 undermines consumer privacy by shielding banks from liability for violating agreements with their customers to protect their personal information.

        What’s the difference between USA and USB? One connects to all your devices and stores your data, the other is standard hardware to use on your computer.
