Court: Homeland Security Must Disclose 'Internet Kill Switch'

An anonymous reader writes "The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) must disclose its plans for a so-called Internet 'kill switch,' a federal court ruled on Tuesday. The United States District Court for the District of Columbia rejected the agency's arguments that its protocols surrounding an Internet kill switch were exempt from public disclosure and ordered the agency to release the records in 30 days. However, the court left the door open for the agency to appeal the ruling."

    It requires thought to put it in the context of this thread, which does not fit in with the Chinese Room response of most Slashdotters, who just regurgitate memetic responses based on symbol pushing, text and moderation being two separate output vectors.
