An attempt to control the Internet

by

JC Sullivan

Senator Jay Rockefeller, at a confirmation hearing of Gary Locke for Commerce Secretary, said “It really almost makes you ask the question would it have been better if we had never invented the Internet.” He said a figure of three million cyber "attacks" are launched against the Department of Defense every day.

According to Kurt Nim, writing in Infowars, Jay Rockefeller’s comments "reveal an astounding degree of ignorance – or if not ignorance, outright propaganda. Since the September 11, 2001, attacks the government has cranked up the fear quotient in regard to cyber attacks and so-called cyber terrorism, a virtually non-existent threat except in the minds of security experts and politicians. In the years since the attacks, not one real instance of real cyberterrorism has been recorded."

Through Sullivan's Eye forsees what is being attempted - with aiding and abetting by Russia and the so-called United Nations, control of our Internet.

The Obama administration, through a proposal by Senators Jay Rockefeller (D-W.V.) and Olympia Snowe (R-Maine), is trying to set the groundwork the creation of an Office of the National Cybersecurity Advisor, to be part of the Executive Office of the President. Under the proposal, that office "would have the power to disconnect what they would call cyberattacks from , if it believes they’re at risk of a cyberattack, ‘critical’ computer networks from the Internet.” As well, the effort would put the White House National Cybersecurity Advisor in charge of coordinating cyber efforts within the intelligence community and within civilian agencies. That also means our military defense networks.

From the notoriously left New York Times, the Cleveland Plain Dealer (December 13, 2009 U.S. talks on Internet security) reprinted that "The United States has begun talks with Russia and a United Nations arms control committee about strengthening Internet security and limiting military use of cyberspace." Can you believe it?

My fellow Americans, with the Left already in control of the major American television networks and major city newspapers, there remain fewer and fewer outlets for freedom of expression without state control or 'spin', just like it is in communist and imperial nations like Russia.

The Internet exists because of private enterprise and freedom. We must guard against these unveiled attempts against our hard-fought freedoms. Are you listening my independent and moderate friends?
