My e-mail to the UN:
Dear Secretariat,
I just wanted to drop you a line concerning the United Nation's stance on internet governance. Since the United Nations feels it is necessary to try and take control of the internet from the United States, might I offer an alternative. Invent your own internet.
The United States invented, funded, and developed the internet. If you have any issues concerning US control over it, why not invent your own? Countries that have issues with things accessable via the web are able to block them at their will, so I personally do not see the issue here.
Will the US Patent System be next on the list of things that should be under direct control and supervision of the United Nations?
Please feel free to e-mail me with any answers, questions, or viewpoints of your own.
Thank you,
Proud_Yank
My email had a little different tone...
To whom it may concern;
What in the holy hell do you U.N. screw-up's think you can do to improve the Internet?
In the last 10 years what have you done that gives us any assurance you would not TOTALLY screw it up!
All you could EVER do is restrict and over bureaucratize it. Why don't you just Get Over It and go back to stealing others money and keeping it.
Good Riddance I hope the UN Folds
