Obama wants to control the Internet
Thursday, May 6, 2010
The FCC has announced its plans to deem and pass Net Neutrality. Specifically, The FCC will defy a court order to stop regulating the Internet by nonsensically deeming the Internet not to be an information service, and regulate it under
Title II of the Communications Act.
That sounds mild but it has disastrous consequences.
Title II of the Communications Act gives the FCC strong and broad powers. If the FCC is allowed to put the Internet in the US under those powers, then the Obama administration will have total power to tax Internet users, regulate content on Internet servers, and even institute price controls on Internet services. Does this sound like it has anything to do with “restoring” anything? I don’t think so.
Read it all at Red State.
Really, Obama? The Internet is NOT AN INFORMATION SOURCE? If you don't want the White House to regulate content - through the FCC - speak up NOW!
And remember in November.
