Why Control Of The Internet Matters

The world starts here

Anytime I hear the words "control" and "government" in the same sentence, I break out in a rash.  Or maybe a rage - they're interchangeable conditions not mutually exclusive.  But with the Kenyan's disastrous intent to turn control of the Internet over to the United Nations come this October, I have to, albeit reluctantly, agree that retaining US government control over the Internet is imperative.  Here's what's going on.  The Commerce Department’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration said Friday it plans to give up control over the body that manages Internet names and addresses. The action means that the U.S. government will relinquish its oversight of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, which manages a number of technical functions that help computers locate the correct servers and websites.  The problem is the Kenyan doesn't have the authority to do that.  But he will try, anyway.  Ted Cruz has presented a bill to prevent it, but congress's response is yet to be seen.  Time is short, so a failsafe position for limp-wristed congressmen will most probably be to run out the clock.

We all know what the Internet is, and what is does.  Or at least we think we do.  We know it provides a platform for presentation and acceptance of commerce, of course; everyone buys something or other online nowadays; from Amazon, eBay, and every retailer imaginable.  And we know it allows the free expression of ideas, opinions and viewpoints, that can be seen and heard all over the world.  For the most part, anyway.  More on this later.  This blog is a perfect example of free speech.  Via the Internet Lightfoot has a forum far, far wider than what he may have had a century ago by standing on the old soapbox and pontificating to anyone who would listen.  And folks can get their own brand of entertainment over the Internet, with a far greater selection of topics and tastes than ever before.  From YouTube's pop music and weirdness of all stripes, to any flavor of pornography.  It's all available to you right on your monitor.  Private.  Secure (mostly).  Anonymous (mostly).

But who administers and manages it?  ICANN does now, anyway.  It's the nonprofit organization that’s in charge of handing out domain names and Web addresses for the entire Internet. They’ve been handling those duties since 1998.  OK, but how did the U.S. get oversight of it in the first place? The Internet was pioneered in the U.S. - that means we invented it, not Al Gore - and for a long time the folks that helped invent it were also in charge of managing it. Until 1998, a computer scientist named Jon Postel at the University of Southern California managed a host of functions related to Internet names and addresses, collectively known as IANA (Internet Assigned Names Authority). When Mr. Postel died in 1998, the Commerce Department issued a contract to ICANN to manage the IANA functions.  So that created a quasi-public-private partnership that's been handling all those dot-coms and domains for the last eighteen years.

But the idealistic, anti-American Kenyan, who like Jimmy Carter in his disastrous relinquishing control of the Panama Canal in 1977 after the US had built and managed it for over 70 years, wants to let the UN handle the duties of the US invented and manged Internet.  And that can be disastrous to American commerce, free speech, and public privacy among other things.  Imagine Iran in charge of Victoria's Secret website.   Imagine China in control of Breitbart's or Drudge's websites.  Imagine Russia in charge of NASA's Moon and Mars archives website.  Imagine Saudi Arabia in charge of Alex Jones or Mark Levin's online shows.  Imagine Somalia in charge of YouTube, or Libya with control over your website.  These countries are members of the UN, and they vote.  And imagine ISIS able to influence the Internet so that Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Sikh, Shinto, Pantheist, New Age or Pagan websites are shut down.  Commerce curtailed; free speech stifled.  Count on it.  But there's a more afoot in the globalists' cabal to strengthen the UN, and make it the world's sole political body. The Kenyan is just fine with killing the Internet as we know it if it means lessening the United States' world influence.  And his puppet master, the despicable open society architect George Soros is all in.

Soros's evil matrix coming soon

Which brings us to another devious globalist scandal that the Internet has exposed. One would think Internet hacking has become a highly desirable skill set. Actually it has.  Among the 2,500 documents hacked from George Soros’ Open Society Foundation are documents in which Soros’ Open Society Foundation boasts of funding a Negro activist campaign against advertisers that actually succeeded in ousting Glenn Beck from Fox News and Pat Buchanan from MSNBC.  In a memorandum dated March 27, 2012, Bill Vandenberg, the head of Soros’ Democracy Fund, discusses a two-year grant to support the Color of Change, an online organizing group described within the document as the largest online political activist group representing Negro issues.  Now you know why race relations have deteriorated. 

It gets better.  Among those documents hacked from George Soros’s Open Society Foundations exposes the billionaire’s level of involvement in attempting to build what his organization describes as a “national movement” to "reform" local police forces across the U.S. The reform largely consists of federal guidelines for local police forces, using the opportunity arising from the police killings of Negroes in Ferguson, Staten Island, North Charleston, and Baltimore.  Soros wants a federal police force in the US, in direct contravention of the US Constitution.  Now you know why the US Department of Justice is taking control of police departments in those four cities, and Seattle no less, among others.  George Soros wants it.  And the Kenyan does his bidding.

The man behind the curtain

So the innocuous news that the Internet is to be surrendered to the UN is in of itself moderately noteworthy.  But consider what media whistle blowers and hackers like Snowden, Guccifer and Assange have used to expose corruption and nefarious plans across the globe.  Think Hillary, the Clinton Crime Syndicate, Soros's evildoing, the Federal Reserve's true purpose and legions of other revelations that the so called mainstream media simply ignores.  The Internet is America's one true source of information, even considering the bias of Facebook, Twitter and Google.  I'll put up with that leftist drivel if it means I can have my resources as well.  Tit for tat.  Their truth for mine. But that light of truth most certainly will dim and extinguish shortly after October of this year.  The UN can't do anything right, and screwing up the Internet with insane politically motivated regulations and censorship will be the order of the day.  Kiss it goodbye.

Prudent men would be well advised to stop this evil directly from where it originates, rather than try to fight the fires that are spread just to distract and confuse.  Today.  Now.  With extreme prejudice.  It's simply not a question of opposing ideas anymore, it's a matter of survival of a noble idea made real:  humanity's greatest and finest achievement.  Individual liberty granted by God given inalienable rights.  Once freedom is gone, it may never return.  

And it all begins with control of the Internet.
