September 30th is the last day the United States retains oversight of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. Obama has accepted the transfer and seems unwilling to reestablish control over the organization. Congress — as usual — seems unwilling to face-off against Obama, as they have yet to send the necessary legislation to Obama’s desk. And it will soon be too late, as many are claiming that the move may be irreversible.
So Obama is getting his way. Barring some last-minute bill — which seems unlikely — the United States is set up to hand over the internet to a global government on October 1.
Some say this could signal the end of a free and open internet, an idea corroborated thanks to an answer given by ICANN CEO Mr. Göran Marby during an interrogation from Senator Ted Cruz.
See that one question Cruz asked that explains exactly why federal control over the internet is important on the next page:
What a joke for president.
WHO IN THE HELL SAID IT WAS OK FOR HIM TO GIVE CONTROL OF ANYTHING TO ANOTHER DAM COUNTRY
How does that keep us safe and free???
Doesn’t. Opens the internet up to all at the UN to look at everything we have.
If you think hacking emails was a problem now … Hacking Hillarys emails will be as easy as opening a box of Crackerjacks. If other countries gain control of our internet no government document will ever be safe from prying eyes…wont matter how secure yiu think your servers are…Every Computer has a Back Door that hackers go through easy as pie eating contests. Like a knife through butter all your precious classified information can be thier publics knowlege in mere minutes… We will retain our freedom of speech and expression but it wont be on the internet if your lame assed deal goes through.
Wtf Obama…this is just more proof you dont give a rusty rats$#%&!@*about a country that You Swore under Oath to Protect and Serve…one more reason to impeach you for being a TRAITOR
Trouble is they don’t need to get paid, they get enough to just let bho do what he wants.
Absolutely–its about Free Speech
It goes without saying that anything this jackass wants is bad for America.
Just where in hell does he have the right in the first place?
