other people have said it better than i ever could:

from the wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyber_Intelligence_Sharing_and_Protection_Act

"CISPA has been criticized by advocates of Internet privacy and civil liberties, such as the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the American Civil Liberties Union, Free Press, Fight for the Future, and Avaaz.org, as well as various conservative and libertarian groups including the Competitive Enterprise Institute, TechFreedom, FreedomWorks, Americans for Limited Government, Liberty Coalition, and the American Conservative Union. Those groups argue CISPA contains too few limits on how and when the government may monitor a private individual’s Internet browsing information. Additionally, they fear that such new powers could be used to spy on the general public rather than to pursue malicious hackers.[10][11] CISPA had garnered favor from corporations and lobbying groups such as Microsoft, Facebook, AT&T, IBM, Apple Inc. and the United States Chamber of Commerce, which look on it as a simple and effective means of sharing important cyber threat information with the government."

from the article:

With little fanfare, the Obama administration said Tuesday its proposal "encourages the private sector to share appropriate cyber threat information" with the Dept. of Homeland Security, which will then share it with other U.S. government agencies and private sector companies.

and

"Given that the White House rightly criticized CISPA in 2013 for potentially facilitating the unnecessary transfer of personal information to the government or other private sector entities when sending cybersecurity threat data, we're concerned that the Administration proposal will unintentionally legitimize the approach taken by these dangerous bills," the Electronic Frontier Foundation said in a statement"

these things upset me. hope and change? i don't see much of a change (from the previous administration) and i certainly don't hold out any hope there might be.
