We must bang the drum. Congress must stop this. Trump should use this as a campaign issue. If he wants the millennial vote there it is!

WTF? This can’t be good. Besides personal info being out there and the probability of censorship, the possibility of governmental and industrial/intellectual espionage will really exist.

Barack Muhammad Jugears hates free speech. Which is exactly why he’s doing this. He wants to shut down all criticism emanating from the internet and the Chinese will be more than accommodating.

My only question: Can Trump reverse it after that POS in the white hut hands it over?

Where’s Reagan to tell them, “We built it, we paid for it, it’s ours and we are going to keep it.”

Under orders from the man who hates this country and wants to bring it down.

Trump must use as campaign issue. This is one large emotional issue. Only positive outcome for the country and his campaign.

Obviously free people need to start creating our own secure networks that are immune to foreign control.

Too bad the Founding Fathers didn't give us a legislature and judiciary to counter a tyrannical president.....

Oh wait !

"Where is the congress on this?"

Paul "John Boehner" Ryan says he's troubled by this and may even weep a little bit....

If this group gets the ability to levy fees, they become a de facto world government.

Very true and troubling.

Typical DC BS. Lessens our ability to do something like cut off ISIS and Jihadis, while increasing the power of authoritarian places like China, the UK, and the EU to restrict free speech.

This is a mistake we’ll look back on with anger.

It does fit a pattern though. As our rights fade away, many times it’s based on international concepts, trade organizations, and other entities.

Our free speech rights will thus be enforced by an international body in the future.

Sounds promising... /s

"Where is the congress on this?"

I agree.

This is another example of corrupt Congress letting faceless federal bureaucrats outside the legislative branch get away with stealing and exercising legislative branch powers. By doing so corrupt lawmakers are able to keep their voting records clean so that they can fool low-information patriots into reelecting them imo.

Remember in November !

What’s this supposed to look like?

Would it be a total global democratization, in which what we knew as US based .com’s would now be forced to become .com.us’s? The old .com’s would not be supported any more?

I suppose that was fated to happen as the web became truly worldwide. Still I don’t know why each designated piece can’t be given to each corresponding party.
