Just wait until they give away the internet. We will all be considered hate speech.
F’em.
This is in-your-face beyond the pale, ala ValJar “there’ll be hell to pay for opponents”.
Related - has there been discussion here about alternate non-internet sources (shortwave stations (freq?), in case of short and long term Internet interruptions?
Well prepared organizations strive to have comprehensive business continuity (comm’s) plans in case of disaster, be it from natural or man-made causes.

Boy that is my greatest fear! Plus I don’t want to pay taxes to .gov only to find out it is the Chinese Government with a bogus IRS.gov site. Yes, China is setting up a location for the Internet regulators, ICANN.
Since you mentioned it, I have been working on this issue—we are under the wire—WE HAVE 4 DAYS!
Friday, Sept. 30, is deadline for Protecting Internet Freedom Act - SB3031 and HR5418
Talked to Cruz and Duffy offices 9/26. McConnell’s tech person was supposed to call back...in meetings BUT NEVER DID...Cornyn office went to voicemail.
Cruz office: Suggested call McConnell! Senate needs to include language form both SB3031 and HR5418 in Continuing Resolution (CR). We need to light a fire~McConnell needs to make this a priority. Senator Cornyn is the Whip and has influence over what is brought to floor. They felt it was ok to contact Ryan too. Make this a priority!!!
Duffy office: They said getting senate bill to contain Protecting Internet Freedom Act language is critical...Much harder for House to move if the Senate does not have the language in the CR.
They believe Ryan is supportive of their efforts...He has supported prohibiting the transfer for past 2.5 years. They believe Democrats should be called in order to bring pressure on Obama to sign a CR with the language as well as our elected Congressional Reps.
Concern: Reason to pressure Dems...There is no guarantee that Obama would not veto the CR (even losing his coveted Zika funding) in order to be able to allow the ICANN and .mil .gov governance to go off shore to China or UN on Oct. 1...So need to pressure Dems—that means Democratic Senators and Pelosi and Reid.
Folks, it is crunch time...Do what you can. Call Email or Tweet the following:

You’re right. Once one part of free speech falls and there’s no objection, that emboldens those book burning creeps.
Will be looking forward to this FEMA FCC National Emergency exercise to come and go without issue.
BTW: How will we recognize fellow FReeper detainees held in FEMA camps for red list processing?
We could wear FUBO yellow stars.
Remember, work will set you free...

FEMA and FCC Issue Reminder and Key Points about Test
WASHINGTON – As a reminder, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), in
coordination with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), will conduct a mandatory
nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) on Wednesday, September 28, at 2:20
p.m. EDT. In light of the upcoming test, the agencies share the following key informational
points:
The purpose of the nationwide test is to ensure that EAS remains an effective means of
warning the public about emergencies. Periodic testing of public alert and warning
systems helps to assess the operational readiness of alerting infrastructure and identify
any needed technological and administrative improvements.

I guess if people formed email groups to disseminate info, they would shut that down as well.
Time to invest in carrier pigeons.
Should we be expecting a knock at the door soon?
