First they wanted the power to take over any business that they deem a threat to the economy, now they want the ability to control the Internet! This is exactly what our founders feared, a central government with too much power. They already have too much power now they want more!
They Internet is the only alternative choice for media and information. We need to do what Gary Fielder said to do in his presentation The Gig is Up, fight for Internet freedom for our lives! We don't need the federal government controlling the only source of free, independent information.
Their reasoning for this bill is because of quote "America's failure to protect cyberspace." Protect cyberspace? The feds can't do anything efficient! Well besides take your money. How about protect your own governments network, keep your filthy hands off the Internet and stop trying to grab more and more power because people are afraid! Franklin's famous quote works perfectly for this, "Those that would sacrifice civil liberties in exchange for a false sense of security deserve neither and will lose both!".
I wanted to get this information out there since I haven't seen in anywhere else. Please do your part to stop this bill immediately!
