FCC COMISSIONER ON INTERNET OVERSIGHT SWITCH "IF YOU CHERISH FREE EXPRESSION," "YOU SHOULD BE WORRIED" THIS IS "IRREVERSIBLE"
HANNITY RADIO INTERVIEW ON WEBPAGE
On Wednesday’s “Sean Hannity Show,” FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai (R) stated that the plan to “essentially give up the US oversight role…of the Internet” to ICANN is something that should worry anyone who cherishes “free expression, and free speech rights generally,” and could potentially cede oversight of the Internet to “foreign governments who might not share our values.” He further stated that such a move is “irreversible.”
Pai said, “This proposal is to essentially give up the US oversight role that it’s had for the last 20 years, basically for the entire commercial lifespan of the Internet to a company called ICANN, which is an international organization, which includes a number of foreign countries. And, it’s an unprecedented move, and one that, as Mr. DeMint pointed out, is irreversible. Once we give up this oversight role, we can’t get it back.”
He added that Internet oversight is a case of, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Pai further stated, “[I]f you cherish free expression, and free speech rights generally, you should be worried, I think, when there’s — this oversight role’s going to be ceded to potentially, foreign governments who might not share our values.”

On a personal note, I've called my senators to urge them to vote no.
Please to the same.
TODAY.
Thank you...can still call senators as Cruz is still trying...even at this late date.
At least Cruz is trying...
Got thru to Cruz offices, the offices are still open and messages will be forwarded
Cruz has just sent a letter to the NTIA National Telecommunication Information Administration (in the Dept. of Commerce) asking that the transfer be delayed until Congress can vote on this issue as it was not part of the House or Senate votes this week.
Suggested contacting leadership MCCONNELL AND COYNYN TO LET THE KNOW YOU WANT NTIA TO DELAY TRANSFER AND A VOTE IN SENATE.
That is the best we can do for now...I will be leaving comments with them as well as House Leadership...
this will just end up promoting multiple dark webs
And, it’s an unprecedented move, and one that is irreversible. "Once we give up this oversight role, we can’t get it back.”
"Once we give up this oversight role, we can’t get it back."
House, late yesterday afternoon scheduled one of their 11:00 p.m. votes...As far as Rep. Duffy’s office is concerned, it is over.
At least Senator Cruz is Still trying...

Dark Webs?
Well, I don’t know that much about them or if they will be impacted, but probably something to pursue
No kidding...and the ‘leadership’ in congress sits on their thumbs.
Some AGs have filed suit, but I no longer trust the courts
We may done for
Thank you for your #10.
BS we can’t get control back...the deal was illegal in the first place. President Trump should tear the deal to bits and tell the UN or whoever else thinks they are in control to get the hell out.

Tough talk...Sorry, that is not what I hear...
This article, Bolton, Gaffney, Cruz, Duffy plus from video below, this cyber security expert, Morgan Wright, on For the Record tonite with Britt Hume...Morgan Wright, says after Oct. 1, there is no putting the toothpaste in the tube...Brave New World where we don’t know if the address entered is really where we are going...
At 22 minute mark...maybe 4 minutes long...Ironic that no one covered this issue BEFORE the votes when something could have been done...

Why do you think some of us have devoted days and days to getting the word out?!?! Texting, Tweeting, emailing, calling and posting numerous articles here...
Sorry FRiend, sadly it is not BS.
As of Saturday, it is a Brave New World. Won’t change immediately but it will change.
If you haven’t made any calls, Friday would be a good time to start...
If you haven’t started praying, now would be good timefor that that perhaps the lawsuit or Cruz letter wil. have some results...
Also, remember Tom Clancy.
Yep, lots of “convenient” deaths - far too many to be random.
What was it,
Once is happenstance,
Twice is circumstance,
Three times is enemy action.
And we’re way beyond three times.
