the internet is dangerous for people who have power,

the internet is not governed and once you have connection everything is free for acces.

fuck them

[stoppos76]

I like when people think. But don't just think, act.

[aigamergrrl]

They want to take everything away that spreads happiness. They want to regulate and delegate. It's a power trip thing... sad... Great informative vid, tho.

Their... not there**

This doesen't surprise me at all.The American people have lost their connection with the government and if you don't change this you're in for one hell of a ride in the future.All the best...

@Jimera0 There's also this thing called the 10th amendment. It recognizes my right to a constitutionally limited govnment. And since there is no constitutional amendment granting the federal government power to regulate the internet, that power is reserved to the states, and to the people.

The feds could regulate sales and transactions on the internet, since that is covered under interstate commerce, but not content, especially content on a privately owned line.

@Jimera0 No, workers may leave a sweatshop at any time they choose. Sweatshop managers also do not execute their employees at an industrial scale.

Democracy is not only not perfect, it isn't even a legitimate form of government. It is merely a transitional period between a republic, and an oligarchy. The will of the majority is just as much a tyranny as a dictator.

A corporation does not HAVE to make profit it's only goal. Governments, almost without fail make tyranny theirs.

I don't know how accurate all this is. I always like to hear both sides of the story. However, I do fear for the internet. Just look at what happened in Egypt. If a government or a corporation wanted to, they could cut us off.

Then there's the more subtle way, bit by bit wrenching control from us. This is much more of a threat here, and if history is anything to show... it'll happen. Not enough people will see we're losing the freedom on the net before it's too late, b/c they'll do it slowly

You're crazy. Absolutely crazy. Ever heard about sweatshops? They're pretty much concentration camps.

Corporations are no more safe than any other group of people with power. Democracy is not perfect, but companies do not have the people's best interests at mind. Their goal is profit. The individuals in the company may be fine, but they are bound by the corporation to make profit their only goal. Freedom of choice is not profitable. How can you trust that?

@crisb8713 Connection> -basic: All sites blocked accept your ISP website and the free Google Package.  -Next one up: includes News websites and sports channels. -Next: Includes all the above and propaganda crap fro children. -Next: Includes porn access.

All packages for a seperate price. Just look at the evolution of television. We need a new system.

"They put their thumb on the scale of democracy".

Good.

Democracy is just as much a form of tyranny as a dictatorship/oligarchy.

And I trust private enterprises with pretty much everything over any government.

I've never heard of viacom or microsoft rounding up people and throwing them in concentration camps like pretty much every government has done at some point.
