Facebook unfriends CISPA cybersecurity bill over 'privacy' (cnet.com)

Hmm... One possible interpretation: FB has an international presence and legal obligations that the CISPA immunity grants don't cover (they are domestic to the U.S.).

CISPA data sharing therewith changes from risk (to FB) mitigating to risk producing.

This is pure speculation on my part -- a limited and limited-ly informed thought exercise. Nonetheless, I find it an interesting (whether or not at all accurate) thought.
