But I'm sure that free speech would be the first thing to go and second they would slap a gigantic tax on every person who signed on, every email sent and every website and and and and and.........YIKES!

That's exactly why they want it to be an "international" deal - so they can tax the bloody thing to high hell.

I'm not entirely sure when the rest of the world will get the idea that socialism doesn't work, but that day can't come soon enough.

But let's think about this - America, the land known for freedom of speech - should hand over control of (what is idealy) the digital embodiment of free speech, to countries like China, North Korea and Iran...who are actively sensoring the Internet in their countries...another great call, UN! Idiots...

Excellent analysis! Does anyone think if the UN had control over the unbridled aspects of free speech we have on the Internet, we'd see any articles or information about Food for Oil scandals or UN pedophiles raping children they are supposed to rescue?

Never give in!
