A precursor to giving something away is a demonstration of ownership.

Does the United States own the internet?

I don’t think we do.

As such, how is it ours to “give away?”

“Does the United States own the internet? I don’t think we do.”

Interesting you should say that. Obama broke the law by moving forward with the transition.

So ... how can that be possible if we don’t ‘own the internet’?

Did you know that the President has an internet ‘kill swtich’? He can just turn it off. It’s hub is based in the Pentagon. Been that way from the beginning.

ICANN is locked in a contract. Without congressional approval, the administration is required to renew it by September 30.

We have as much claim to the internet as we had to the Panama Canal.

We built it dammit!

Our military developed it...and We paid for it, we can and should retain control of .gov and .mil extensions which the Senate bill does.

We are the last beacon of what remains of free speech. Do you seriously think that the UN, which has countries on board who wish to ban hate speech (Sweden, for one.), will care about our First Amendment rights?

People are so concerned about protection of Second Amendment Rights...They ought to be protecting our First Amendment rights—after all, it is the First Amendment—Why should we be complacent about ANYTHING that Obama wants to transfer to Globalists?
