| 1111449 | 2010-06-19 10:40:00 | The global internet as a US national asset? I have two BIG fingers right here for Obama and his ilk. i dont think it was proposed by Obama, it is proposed by Joe Lieberman, who is chairman of the US Homeland Security committee, regardless of who the president is. |

I think it was one scheme to be able to notify Americans of nuclear attack so they could get to their bunkers......whilst in Britain the government advice in case of nuclear attack was to put a brown paper bag over your head.....:banana |

| 1111454 | 2010-06-19 11:30:00 | This is stupid. Sure, a lot of the big sites are located in the US, as are a few other important servers (namely the DNS root). Oh boo hoo, you can't get to facebook! So long as ISP's keep good DNS caches, and avoid what happened when some country (iran? iraq? israel?) blocked out youtube, and ended up blocking it out over most of the world. I sorta forgot where I was heading with this post... but it reminds me of this article: www.cracked.com |

| 1111458 | 2010-06-19 22:43:00 | sad sack, I think the picture of him describes his decision, retarded static.stuff.co.nz I propose that we confiscate all american internet related technology to save them from themselves and hide it all on Steward Island... shotgun the first 3D TV that comes in. I can see what will happen if this does get passed though, they well have random "tests" to make sure it works, screw up the world and when they actually need it, it wont work. or Obama will post some embarrassing pics of his drunken party on Facebook and wake up with a hangover and take down the internet until he can get rid of them. either that or some 21 year old Chinese guy will hack it and threaten the world by taking the internet down casually during the live streaming of world cup football |
