You knew this was coming. They can not stand anything that they can’t control. They hate anything that empowers the individual over the collectivity. They have their vicious fangs out and want to know who visits what site, who posts what, who buys what.
Their goals are statist goals: tax the hell out of it until it dies, then take over; monitor all communications and punish those who violate their rules; burden it with oppressive rules and regulations that will deaden growth.
Pssst. The federal government already controls the Internet. It always has. It only ceded the day-to-day management to a contracted company. Remember the international uproar back when Bush refused to give up control of the Internet? He did that because to give up control could mean entities like the Muzzie- and socialist-controlled UN would have a say in how it’s managed.
