It does not suprise me that the government is so inept as to securce their current computers so now they have to make their own seperate internet. Now I hope they will stop screwing with our version.

Arpanet was theirs to begin with. It was a government initiative.

Now I hope they will stop screwing with our version.

My guess is they'll be running it on IPV6, which "our version" is just starting to migrate to. This means they'll have the prime address spaces reserved, and will require that the industry standards be written to prevent a mis-configured router from being able to route between "our" version and "their" version. In short, they'll end up screwing with "our" next version of the internet before we even get there.
