Google Warns Against UN Net Conference

Posted by Soulskill on Wednesday November 21, 2012 @08:27AM from the deciding-how-you-view-cat-pictures dept.

another random user writes "Google has warned that a forthcoming U.N.-organized conference threatens the 'free and open internet.' Government representatives are set to agree a new information and communications treaty in December. It has been claimed some countries will try to wrest oversight of the net's technical specifications and domain name system from U.S. bodies to an international organization. However, the U.N. has said there would be consensus before any change was agreed." Google is using its Take Action page to encourage people to speak out on this issue.

But WILL Omama turn up a palm to their faces or give them a big wet kissy poo on the sphincter; is the question. When you vote like an idiot for an idiot, don't be surprised when he sells you to other idiot dictators like the left of the Peoples Glorious Repubmocrat One Party Shitstem have done for around a century now.
