Venezuela partially shut down social networks.

During the Boston Bombing, broadband Internet service in Watertown was mysteriously shut down, according to the local Fox affiliate FOX-25.

Now we see social networks being shut down - by executive order.

WE should give control of the Internet to the United Nations.

That ought to end all squabbles and provide a “fair” use of the Internet.
