> I've also heard that this law requires ISPs to turn this information over without a warrant. Is this not correct?

That isn't correct, you could go and read the bill if you want: http://www.opencongress.org/bill/112-h1981/text

Calling it the "Spy on Everyone Always Act" is sensationalized no matter what your opinion is on the bill. Most ISPs wouldn't even have to change their current behaviors to comply with it. (To be fair, that's not saying much anyway...)

The more bills we shoot down because of misinformation, the less likely we can defeat bills with more serious problems.
