U.S. officials announced plans Friday to relinquish federal government control over the administration of the Internet, a move that pleased international critics but alarmed some business leaders and others who rely on the smooth functioning of the Web.
Pressure to let go of the final vestiges of U.S. authority over the system of Web addresses and domain names that organize the Internet has been building for more than a decade and was supercharged by the backlash last year to revelations about National Security Agency surveillance.

It seems that the Great Bloviator has difficulty getting good people on his show anymore. Nobody of any substance or self-respect is willing to put up with him.
He has clearly “held back” from criticizing Obama and is always giving him “the benefit of the doubt” in hopes of getting the big interview. His talking points are generally insightful and informative, but the rest of his show is mostly boring and predictable.
Time to stop being makers for the takers...
. “But rejoice because we have homosexual marriage, that’s all that matters (to liberals). “
Believe it or not, that is also what matters to a lot of Conservatives.
I doesn’t bother me all that much. I can live without it. Some adjustments will need to be made but it is not a necessity. Besides, I get T3 access through my workplace. I just won’t have the luxury of working from home if I give up high speed access if it becomes overly taxed or unaffordable..
Romney would have been just as bad, which is why I voted independent.</sarcasm>
When H@!! freezes more solid than the ice around the global warming research ships.
Call both the GOP and Dem senators. Keep up the pressure. While this flight 370 ruckus is going on, ozippy is getting one more week of treasonous acts accomplished under the radar. He's going faster and faster with his pen and phone as his lame duck time is running out. Sick to death of this traitor.
Let's DO something. Call today or Monday. Silence is unacceptable.
Jimmy Carter > Panama Canal
Barack Hussein Obama > Internet
Ping...
Exactly! This is what drives me nuts, our acceptance of this crap. Used to be FR could elect a candidate single-highhandedly or stop government action with calls & emails, now everyone says "Oh well, too late". I still call but maybe should do more of what you're doing and rally the troops.
I think the government's greatest weapon at this point is elections, they insist we focus on the future and let those already in office off with a free pass. We need to make the incumbents accountable before it's too late.
SMELLS like another Obama Admin DISTRACTION
Now you have to deal with a UN tribunal to gain access, and people from places who hate Americans with a passion, all due to the fact that idiots gave up control of a communications system that WE AMERICANS created.
Pure * insanity.
Easy to stop the viewer abuse, don’t turn him on.
Some kind of obtuse sarc post? Looks more like a guilty plea.
Wow an admitted nobama voter. Thanks for the tyranny!
Planning on sarcastically voting for hitlery too?
I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and take the blame for not being clear, but I agree with you. That was the point of my post.
O has such power and can share it with evil nations. He knows his time is running short in office and has to move fast. People are turning on him. He just said something about having little time to get things done. It's no wonder the NSA is so important to them. Keep the people boxed in and under control.
My husband was going to buy me a ham radio or the ones you can use through a satellite, but you have to get a license to use the satellite. The left already has all the media, except talk radio, but if we can't keep the IRS off our backs, how do we stop the FCC from controlling that too.
Maybe I'm being too....? Regardless, I'm getting a radio, if nothing else, for the fun of it.
Yep, this is nothing but a treasonous transfer of wealth of the highest order!
Unfortunately, the UN is over 80% OIC countries, muzlims. It started out as a very good and lofty idea however it quickly failed. You can see that in every one of their pronouncements against Israel.
Every step of the way it is the west pouring cash into these backwards nations.
OPbama is a muslim at heart seeking to dimininish America and the west in every way.
This is just another example. Once you put all the pieces in place the picture is overwhelmingly “ Screw America! and you Screw the West!”
