That’s what Obama is going to do, if we don’t stop him. "Some background: The Internet came into being because of the genius work of Americans Dr.Robert E. Kahn and Dr. Vinton G. Cerf [AlGore had nothing to do with except to be the sitting vice-president during the time it became popular and well-used. –RT]. These men, while working for the Department of Defense in the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency in the early 1970s, conceived, designed, and implemented the idea of 'open-architecture networking.' This breakthrough in connectivity and networking was the birth of the Internet. What better country to protect the Internet than the United States? We invented it, and we paid for the research and implementation that made it possible.
“We are the freest, most tolerant nation on earth, we believe in the fundamental right of free speech, and we practice a free market of commerce and ideas. America has always been against censorship and has shared its invention with the world without fee or unreasonable or arbitrary restriction. The user fee to operate on the Internet is not one paid to the U.S. government; a consumer pays it to private Internet companies, who provide access to the Internet through servers for their subscribers." Now Obama wants to give it away and let control be ceded to an international organization not dedicated to freedom of speech. (
