The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA) became a major focal point of internet activism and meme culture in the early 2010s, following the fight against SOPA and PIPA. As a proposed law that would allow for broader data sharing between the government and private tech companies, it sparked widespread fears regarding digital privacy and mass surveillance. Memes surrounding CISPA typically utilize imagery associated with 'Big Brother,' intrusive spying, or the government peeking over a shoulder to monitor private activities. These memes serve as a form of digital protest, using humor and satire to critique legislative overreach and defend civil liberties in the online space.
