The U.S. Congress is considering legislation entitled Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act of 2010. There is a version in the House and Senate. The Senate’s is moving along, sponsored by Joe Lieberman (I-CT) and is cosponsored by Republican Susan Collins (R-ME). This proposed bill is intended to protect U.S. citizens from cyber attacks, but I argue that is intended to partially scare citizens and is littered with flaws.

Largely, I find Jeffrey Carr’s summary of Forbes.com to be accurate. The bill creates the “White House Office for Cyberspace Policy” and a “National Center for Cyber-security and Communications.” These agencies would be dedicated to protect the Internet in the United States. Do we really need a dedicated government office for this?

Dedicated government offices always feel the need to protect “we the people” from ourselves so they start....

Protect the internet?

Oh please, the Demos started the FINANCIAL CRISES to get control now they are going to police Wall Street and the Banks.

The internet Proctection Scam is about how to get control and shut down sites like FREEREPUBLIC which are destroying the chief liars popularity numbers.

Listen at 4 minutes to PROVE Obama is a bold faced liar.

Once they get control of the internet you will never see a story like this again.

They may say “protecting cyberspace” but it’s really about putting a federal tax on transactions and fining and jailing people who criticize congressjerks for their stupid actions.
