Obama is giving away the internet

[Rambunctious]

WHY?

 

[TheOldSchool]

Lol

 

[Rambunctious]

No really....why? at a time when hacking is an everyday occurrence why would he give control of the internet away? I'm curious and serious and would like an answer other than LOL from the idiot old school.

 

[norwegen]

I hope he gives it to me.

Or do I need to buy a raffle ticket?

Yep he just gave the internet away. Who knows what it will look like Saturday? China will be in charge of your porn sites, Saudi Arabia will have access to your bank account...

You should probably just throw away your computer. The UN is looking at you through the screen as we speak.

Okay so stick with your sarcasm but at least fill me in. Why is he doing it. If you have information that will shed some light on what if anything will change after we lose control of the internet than lets hear it. I'm not being political, this may be no big deal, if it's not a big deal, than why is it not a big deal?

So none of you liberals can shed some light on this issue? is this a good thing or bad thing? Did any of you even know about this? I think it's a bad thing at this time. Why Obama thinks it's so important that he puts it on his bucket list is beyond me. I don't know about any of you but I'm calling congress. He may need another slap down.

Okay well the first thing you should know is that what is happening is absolutely not "giving away the internet." Think about that for a second. What do you think "giving away the internet" even means?

WHY?

So it can be censored. Forums like this will disappear.

Oh okay. How will it be censored then?

He has given away our safety and wants to take away our guns...the internet was just next on the list.

Well I do know that right now we here in America have control of the internet. It's the ITEF that provide network infrastructure services such as Domain Name Service. And there is a world wide web service both of these groups are controlled by American engineers and both are based in our country at this time. So why the change?

All of the world wide web is controlled entirely by American engineers? Who told you this?

It was on tonight"s news. Obama wants to allow other nations to take control of the internet. I provided a link. It sounds kind of scary to me and I guess he is being sued by some states attorney's over it. My question is why would an American president do or even want to do this?

You can't even define what "allow other nations to take control of the internet" means. Are you afraid China will censor U.S. websites in the U.S.? Because that's not how the internet works, and nobody can make it work that way. Why do you think no government can stop Wikileaks? Why do you think Silk Road wasn't immediately shut down the second it was discovered?

No I worry about them censoring their own people and if worse comes to worse eventually taking action at the UN to YES censor us on religious or political grounds.

That cannot happen.

Now back to your point about countries censoring their own people.... THEY ALREADY DO THAT!!! But HOW? Doesn't the U.S. CONTROL THE INTERNET? Why would the U.S. censor China's internet?!

Do you think that, currently, the U.S. controls the world's internet, and the world needs permission from the U.S. to control what appears on their internet?

Oh okay. How will it be censored then?

Pretty easy to delete what you don't consider worthy when you control content. Criticism of Islam and climate change and global government will disappear.
