Welcome to the new internet now that control is not longer held by the United States. Thanks Obama.

Giving away control of internet is risky for U.S.

The internet may never be the same after Sept. 30.

Big changes are coming that threaten its security, stability and openness. The United States has always controlled how the internet functions but, under a plan backed by President Barack Obama, next month it will abdicate control to a multi-stakeholder international governing body.

It’s a big deal, but it’s complicated.

Let me explain: To reach a website or person on the internet, you must give your computer a destination — usually entered as a name or number. That destination has to be unique so computers know where to find each other. Humans prefer to find web and email addresses by name, such as google.com. But computers know each other by numbers, or Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.

Welcome...Oh I have been in this new internet for a while :(

Ironic that you would post this to me...well at any rate, it is “small worldish.” I posted more than 2 dozen threads/articles about the internet transfer...as well as the mass DOS outages earlier in the fall.

Several of us Freepers were pretty vocal about trying to stop the transfer from happening. People called reps & Senators, tweeted, emailed, etc. to try to stop this, but to no avail.

I agree with you giving away control is risky business for US! We certainly are going to have problems with the internet going forward; however, Drudge stated earlier this week that when he had DDoS attacks earlier this week, he believed it was OUR government behind them.

I am not surprised :(
