Mod/s: I did perform a search on INGO and didn't find a recent topic on this so if it's a duplicate, please move it. Thanks
I was listening to the radio today and the issue of the UN wanting control of the internet was briefly introduced. The word "suppression" came to mind, among other things. This has been rumored for awhile now but the issue will officially be on the table at the UN this summer as I understood it. Of course Russia is in support of it, especially now with the Russian population on the verge of social upheaval. With all the turmoil around the globe and in our own backyard, the internet and the instantaneous information it provides, even if skewed by all sides, is a critical link to avoid becoming servants and subjects. It's not a stretch to think Obama would give away yet another American societal staple to further his agenda or the agenda he is being dictated.
Here is one of many links on the subject. I grabbed some low hanging fruit just to get this topic moving. It made for a good subject title too, if not a little cheap.
Obama Surrendering Internet to Foreign Powers
Losing control of the internet to the UN is akin to losing control of gun ownership to the same. A few years ago I would have cared-a-less with the future of the internet but times they are a changin'.
