In discussing what more the Left could, or wished to do, the discussion turned to the internet, and the curtailing of information. That is the Leftist's fondest wish.
Most folks don't understand the web of Leftists involved....but with the current President revealed to be a liar and a power hungry megalomaniac, now is the time to learn what is going on, and the direction of his power-grab.
" One of the biggest enemies to collectivists everywhere is the free flow of information. Totalitarians have always sought to control the media and use it to disseminate its propaganda. The mainstream media in America is already owned and controlled by collectivists, but what's new for them is the flow of information over the Internet. Their real concern is not pornography or terrorism as they claim, but the free flow of information that exposes their agendas. " Socialists in the House: the Progressive Caucus
6. The Founders had great faith in the ability of the people to self-govern, to constantly question the prerogatives of centralized authority, and, through grassroots diligence, limit the power of government. But, the immense tutelary power, in Tocquevilles words, will not give up that power. By using the FCC, government could pull the strings. Losing the power of the broadcast band, the government is now in the process of applying same to the internet. Despite the fact that prices for internet services are falling, and consumer choice is booming, the FCC asserts the need to intervene in this actively functioning marketplace.
a. The FCC in approving this version of net neutrality took a number of procedural steps to overcome an earlier court ruling that questioned whether the FCC had authority to regulate the internet. While a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia strongly questioned the FCC's authority, GOP Attempt to Overturn FCC's Net Neutrality Rules Fails in Senate - TheWrap

This means more Obama federal judges....nothing will stand in the way of 'regulations.'
7. The real agenda behind government control of the Internet has always been to strangle and suffocate independent media outlets who are now competing with and even displacing establishment press organs, with websites like the Drudge Report now attracting more traffic than many large newspapers combined. As part of this war against independent media, the FTC recently proposing a Drudge Tax that would force independent media organizations to pay fees that would be used to fund mainstream newspapers.
In addition, the FCC has rolled a censorship plan into its Net Neutrality scheme in a stealth attempt to impose Internet regulation. Under the FCCs regulatory control consumers would be forced to buy an Internet/TV/Phone connectivity box that the government approves. Everyone will pay rates for service that the government sets. And everything passing through your Internet, TV, or phone would become subject to the FCCs consistent regulatory whim, writes Americans for Tax Reforms Kelly William Cobb.

8. Weve been seeing a wide array of incredible, all-encompassing government overreaches on cell phones and the Internet come cascading out ever since Edward Snowden first broached the subject.

These government data power grabs are horrendous attacks on the Internet ....Just as egregious are the governments attacks on the Internets spine...
And then theres Network Neutrality. Net Neutrality mandates that the government regulate the entire Web. Which means the government lords over every single website on the planet.... Net Neutrality is a constantly shifting, over-regulatory mess of an illegal imposition."

9. Net neutrality rules must be implemented while the government should quintuple federal funding for public and community broadcasting, argued Ben Scott, the State Departments recently appointed policy adviser for innovation.
Scott was writing last year in a radical magazine in an article co-authored by Robert W. McChesney (left), an avowed Marxist activist who has called for the dismantlement, brick-by-brick, of the U.S. capitalist system, with America being rebuilt as a socialist society.
McChesney is the founder of the George Soros-funded Free Press, which petitions for more government control of the Internet and news media.
Scott and McChesney also recommended the U.S. impose ownership limits on local radio, TV, and cable channels while pushing for more control of the media by the FCC.
