US Follows China And Iran In Controlling The Internet

This link will take you to a discussion of the coming fight over the FCCs latest attempt to take over the Internet.

Attack on Free Speech

The FCC has now set out to create a giant utility out of the Internet. For almost 20 years the Internet has been a "Free Space". Almost a lawless land in that the only regulation has been self control. It has worked and until it shows that it cant regulate itself it should remain that way.

Only China and Iran currently restrict the citizens use of the Internet. Do we really want to join that axis?

The Internet is like a huge library where every book ever written is on display. It is the perfect way to bring democracy to the entire world. If the government begins suppressing the thoughts of Americans then who is going to be "Teaching" the rest of the world about democracy? Do we really want, whoever that is, to be doing the speaking for us....until their government shuts them down as well?

Librarys in the US are free and the only restrictions that are put on their content is by the library itself. Can you imagine the uproar..maybe even revolution...that would occur if the President stated that in the future all Librarys would be "Content neutral"?

We must stop this before it gets started. The FCC has no jurisdiction when it comes to a world wide phenomenon that is "owned" by the people of the world, not by any three countries, China, the US, and Iran. These are the axis for the destruction of FREE SPEECH.

This is just one more indication of the horrible mistake that was made in November of 2008 when we elected a socialist dictator to run our country!
