'Kill Switch' Proposed For President

No comment.

[oyez]

give the president the equivalent of an Internet "kill switch"

I am so tempted to rearrange the wording of the sentence.

[SpaceBar]

“Protecting cyberspace”. Think about those words until the full gravity of the complete line of BS we are being fed becomes clear.

[Salvation]

Kill the bill. We want to have the free speech promised in the Bill of Rights.

U. S. Senate

U. S. House of Representatives

This is nothing more than a high tec book burning...

The bill is known as the Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act

We had to kill the internet in order to save it.

When is the last straw going to come? Please, somebody tellme when the last straw is going to come!

I do not trust Obama or any of the other idiots in DC on the democrat side to control the Off switch on my dishwasher, let alone the internet. If GW Bush had been given half the power that they want to give to the current man child president, the libs would be rioting in the streets.

Just like when Bush was president and the libs put out that full page newspaper ad “not in our name” making fun of General Petrayus. Now I guess they are all quiet and content. They make me sick they are such hypocrites!

FUBO. Freedom killer.

This isn’t something new from the current administration, it all started after 9/11. It’s inevitable, just a cheaper and faster form of policing and closing our borders...which is what lots of people apparently want.

Shaking my head again & thinking FUBO.

get the old CB's out cause if they do this, the cell towers will go tooo...

Many Americans are using the Internet as their soul source of voice communications. If Obama had an Internet "kill switch", he could turn off their phone service. No president should ever have this sort of authority.

Any Repub who votes for this needs to be replaced.

[vpintheak]

Too much bad talk, and BAM! internet down. Free speech dead.

Go to Americans for Prosperity's site NoInternetTakeover.com to sign a petition and send an email your CONgre$$ critters to oppose this fascist power grab.

How could this even be done? The internet is every computer in the world with an online connection. I understand there are huge servers which help to keep things going fast, but it would require the complete take over of all tech companies in the US.
