Have you read the amended CISPA bill that the House passed? Could you point to something in it that leads you to believe that it provides any of the tools of SOPA? I know these discussions get contentious, but, respectfully, I don't see any mechanisms in CISPA that would enable the government to "control" anything. The bill literally does nothing but provide a mechanism for potentially private information to be shared; it is explicitly opt-in, meaning Reddit can't be forced to share anything under the terms of CISPA. There is no sneaky clause in it anywhere that would enable the government to, say, shut off an Internet connection, or turn off a DNS name.
I bring this up because there has been a lot of very terrible reporting on CISPA alleging all of these things; from what I can see, that reporting squares up with no version of CISPA that has ever been submitted.
If your primary source of information about CISPA is, say, Cory Doctorow, then of course I can understand why you think it might negatively impact Facebook to support CISPA. But Doctorow appears to be flatly wrong about CISPA.
Finally, that Wikipedia section is a hodgepodge (tracking opinions on evolving current events is not something Wikipedia excels at). It would be easy to get the wrong idea from that list, because many of those sources are discussing multiple different bills and weren't written or intended as coherent oppositions to CISPA.
