Good thing Jimmy Carter is not President or he would just hand it over to them.

and Kerry was planning on it.

and we'd better get rid of the UN before the next dem pres. gets elected

If the UN wanting to get involved with the Internet, there are two areas that they are mainly concerned about:

1. Taxation

2. Censorship

It only stands to reason, since they want to control the world!

That's the plan. Slick Willie gets to be King of the UN, and Hill rules the White House. Together they rule the world. Not.

Forgot the "is" between UN and wanting. Shouldn't proofread on an empty stomach.

My apologies to those of you who are easily offended by poor grammar.

The leftists want to control the 13 root authoritative Domain Name Servers. We'd be making a big mistake to even let them take over management of only 1 such DNS server.

Just a thought....

I second your thoughts -- well said! Anything that has the letters "UN" attached should be suspect and avoided at all costs!

Incrementalism.
First, they'd use the propaganda of "to be fair" to try to get the rest. Then, maybe "equality for all servers". How about "unified?"
Instead of making them all free, to "make it fair", they'd dictate them all.

I will personally kick Zhaos butt and dismantle ITU's offices with my bare hands if they so much as try it!!!

The Internet is the only free place on earth. I will die before I let the UN get it's slimy corrupt tentacles on it.
