Obama Can Shut Down Internet For 4 Months Under New Emergency Powers
‘Kill switch’ bill approved, moves to Senate floor

President Obama will be handed the power to shut down the Internet for at least four months without Congressional oversight if the Senate votes for the infamous Internet ‘kill switch’ bill, which was approved by a key Senate committee yesterday and now moves to the floor.
The Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act, which is being pushed hard by Senator Joe Lieberman, would hand absolute power to the federal government to close down networks, and block incoming Internet traffic from certain countries under a declared national emergency.
Despite the Center for Democracy and Technology and 23 other privacy and technology organizations sending letters to Lieberman and other backers of the bill expressing concerns that the legislation could be used to stifle free speech, the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee passed in the bill in advance of a vote on the Senate floor.
In response to widespread criticism of the bill, language was added that would force the government to seek congressional approval to extend emergency measures beyond 120 days. Still, this would hand Obama the authority to shut down the Internet on a whim without Congressional oversight or approval for a period of no less than four months.
The Senators pushing the bill rejected the claim that the bill was a ‘kill switch’ for the Internet, not by denying that Obama would be given the authority to shut down the Internet as part of this legislation, but by arguing that he already had the power to do so.
They argued “That the President already had authority under the Communications Act to “cause the closing of any facility or station for wire communication” when there is a “state or threat of war”, reports the Sydney Morning Herald.
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
Fears that the legislation is aimed at bringing the Internet under the regulatory power of the U.S. government in an offensive against free speech were heightened further on Sunday, when Lieberman revealed that the plan was to mimic China’s policies of policing the web with censorship and coercion.
“Right now China, the government, can disconnect parts of its Internet in case of war and we need to have that here too,” Lieberman told CNN’s Candy Crowley.
While media and public attention is overwhelmingly focused on the BP oil spill, the establishment is quietly preparing the framework that will allow Obama, or indeed any President who follows him, to bring down a technological iron curtain that will give the government a foot in the door on seizing complete control over the Internet.
As we have illustrated, fears surrounding cybersecurity have been hyped to mask the real agenda behind the bill, which is to strangle the runaway growth of alternative and independent media outlets which are exposing government atrocities, cover-ups and cronyism like never before.
Indeed, China uses similar rhetoric about the need to maintain “security” and combating cyber warfare by regulating the web, when in reality their entire program is focused around silencing anyone who criticizes the state.
The real agenda behind government control of the Internet has always been to strangle and suffocate independent media outlets who are now competing with and even displacing establishment press organs, with websites like the Drudge Report now attracting more traffic than many large newspapers combined. As part of this war against independent media, the FTC recently proposing a “Drudge Tax” that would force independent media organizations to pay fees that would be used to fund mainstream newspapers.

Yes it will be shut down. It is called a national bank failure and Holiday. Once not long ago in a city far away a movie was shown about a small town that was shut off from the internet and they had to vacate in a Grapes of Wrath Fashion in search of internet access.

Then what? Another bailout for all the ISP’s and all the businesses that require internet for transactions who just lost 4 months income?
They’re about to whitewash the internet, At any means necessary…
They’ve underestimated the quickening that has begun in the last few years, and now ‘the puppet masters’ are at war with the free flow of information on the internet…
Look at General McChrystal, he was just removed for exercising his first amendment..
They removed a 4th generation military officer and put in a pencil pushing fainter..

Thanks to the internet, the public are more informed and politically organized than ever.
Without the internet, the recent public political awakening can be reversed by steady doses of corporate/state controlled propaganda broadcast by ABCCBSNBCCNNMSNBCFOX.
The Patriot movement should plan for the day when the internet will no longer be available for activist purposes.

For example, the government’s Income tax scam.
I wonder how many of you noticed the legal definition for “Exempt income” that is ALREADY WRITTEN into tax law.

Here’s an interesting Poll, Though it will mean nothing to the people who tell us what to do. (obamao/Federal Government)
(From Foxnews)
**Do You Support Blanket Legalization for Millions of Illegals?**
Yes — We’re not about to start rounding up and deporting millions of people. Legalize them — then secure the border. 1% (516 votes)
Undecided — I need to know more, such as would there be a case-by-case review? 1% (380 votes)
No — This is insanity. Let’s first secure the borders, then openly discuss how best to deal with the illegal immigrant problem. 97% (37,692 votes)
Other (post a comment) 1% (335 votes)
Total Votes: 38,923
=======
So, 97% of voters said that they are against blanket amnesty.
They will still try and shove it down our throats though…..

What’s gonna happen that requires an internet shut down? And what would shutting the consumers and busineses from the internet going to achieve? The terrorists or whoever will easily hack in if they wanted…they could use satellite connections or whatever they want.

Well I guess if Obama shuts down the internet for 4 months we don’t have to pay it and I think my cable company might get a little more pissed than me at all that lost revenue. Give it up, Obama, we know you want to shut us all down by now but lady truth will somehow find a way to rise to the surface to spite your efforts to stifle her. Truth is Obama’s enemy and he fears the internet for that very reason. All the rotten things Obama is guilty of by now from stealing companies to drone attacks to his involvement in the BP fiasco…are things the internet exposes. I would not want to be in his shoes. I would rather be the slave come Judgment Day.

Why can’t the American people have a ‘kill switch’ on the White House for at least four months without Congressional oversight or any oversight at all, as it seems oversight is irrelevant like everything else concerning American’s rights and freedoms. What a delight to watch Obama’s jaw drop as he tries to speak without his TelePrompTer, because it was turned off with a ‘kill switch’ for four months.
Maybe American’s can say to the government, you turn off the internet with a ‘kill switch’ and we will stop work and all activities until it is turned back on. So when you flick off that ‘kill switch’ you will be literally be killing all of us at the same time, you White House Internet Power abusing Idiot.

HELLO PRISONPLANET!!! Look at this piece of World Government/Thought Crime Legislation known as The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement.
The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, which will go before Congress later this year. The bill would make P2P or BitTorrent client development a criminal offense if the distributed software was used for infringement. It also implements an interesting provision called “imminent infringement”, which allows the government to charge people who they think might be about to infringe with a civil offense (for example if you searched “torrent daft punk”). This is among the first official “thought crime” provisions to be proposed by the U.S. government. The bill also makes it a criminal offense to bypass DRM.

Well the intent of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement isn’t to stop You or I from downloading Rico Suave’s ground breaking and ahead of it’s time album “Mo’ Ritmo”. No the real purpose is to put us one step further on the road to world government.ACTA will of course be run by unelected international bureaucrats.
“The scope of ACTA is broad, including counterfeit goods, generic medicines and what is termed “piracy over the Internet”, ie copyright infringement using the internet.” quot from wikipedia.
To make sure none of us are thinking anything the internationalist don’t want us to. They’ve included something called “imminent infringement” (A.K.A. a precrime offense)so if you so much as type “Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch torrent” into Google you’ll be a thought criminal and Tom Cruse will be on your ass.

I’ve heard of some companies shutting down their office networks when Neutron Jack or some other toe cutters came in to rescue a company from bankruptcy.
But it works the other way too … one company used a spare meeting room as a SleepShop for employees and called every person directly on their office line to get them to arrive – eventually everyone realized it was Carousel and refused to answer their telephones … then HR had to send out Sandmen to bring them there. Then everyone went downtown for sanctuary, hoping that HR would pass over them…

You need to visit electronics stores more often … anyone can set up their own local wireless network without using city-wide or national networks. When our local college started trying to make students pay for access to the campus LAN, students just set up their own wi-fi networks, and hung twisted-core cable from one window to another. Given the choice between students running their own red-zone network or appearing to be able to provide a network guess what the administration chose?
You can set up wi-fi routers to form your home network – as long as two computers are in the transmission zone of a router, you have a network … even a laptop can be set up as a base station.. You can also extend the range of wi-fi router to around 2.5km using empty Pringles cans and aluminum foil (see slashdot).
Don’t forget Bluetooth networks – a mobile phone can be used as a base station and as a receiver. You can buy a $10 dongle for your laptop that has 100m range.
It’s even possible to transmit data by bouncing light off the local clouds above a city.
If all those fail, you can always pass around USB memory sticks in the way East European countries passed floppy-disks across the Berlin Wall in the 1980’s.

I can hear the judge asking… “so Mr. Outlaw, you stand accused of robbery, how do you plead?”…’Not guilty your honor’… The Judge says “oh come off it, with a name like Outlaw, you want us to believe you’re not guilty?” Look at Senator Joe Lie-ber-man… his name says it all. The first syllable of his name is “Lie” so why does anyone expect him to tell the truth, ever, about anything? Handing the Obamination the God switch to the internet is like torching the first amendment with a flame-thrower. Senator Joe Liarman should be tossed out of office, the next election because of communist legislation like this. From now on I would like everyone to start intentionally misspelling communist Lieberman… “Liarman”. Today Communist Senator Joe Liarman handed the President – the God Switch to the Internet.

Alright. EVERYONE. Pay heed to the following:
http : // cryptome. org/ns-tic.pdf
“Executive Summary
Cyberspace – the interdependent network of information technology components that underpins many of our communications – is a crucial component of the Nation’s critical infrastructure. We use cyberspace to exchange information, buy and sell products and services, and enable many online transactions across a wide range of sectors, both nationally and internationally. As a result, a secure cyberspace is critical to the health of our economy and to the security of our Nation. In particular, the Federal Government must address the recent and alarming rise in online fraud, identity theft, and misuse of information online.
One key step in reducing online fraud and identity theft is to increase the level of trust associated with identities in cyberspace. While this Strategy recognizes the value of anonymity for many online transactions (e.g., blog postings), for other types of transactions (e.g., online banking or accessing electronic health records) it is important that the parties to that transaction have a high degree of trust that they are interacting with known entities. Spoofed websites, stolen passwords, and compromised login accounts are all symptoms of an untrustworthy computing environment. This Strategy seeks to identify ways to raise the level of trust associated with the identities of individuals, organizations, services, and devices involved in certain types of online transactions. The Strategy’s vision is:
Individuals and organizations utilize secure, efficient, easy-to-use, and interoperable identity
solutions to access online services in a manner that promotes confidence, privacy, choice,
and innovation.
More specifically, the Strategy defines and promotes an Identity Ecosystem that supports trusted online environments. The Identity Ecosystem is an online environment where individuals, organizations, services, and devices can trust each other because authoritative sources establish and authenticate their digital identities. The Identity Ecosystem enables:
· Security, by making it more difficult for adversaries to compromise online transactions;
· Efficiency based on convenience for individuals who may choose to manage fewer passwords or accounts than they do today, and for the private sector, which stands to
benefit from a reduction in paper-based and account management processes;
· Ease-of-use by automating identity solutions whenever possible and basing them on technology that is easy to operate with minimal training;
· Confidence that digital identities are adequately protected, thereby increasing the use of the Internet for various types of online transactions;
· Increased privacy for individuals, who rely on their data being handled responsibly and who are routinely informed about those who are collecting their data and the purposes for which it is being used;
· Greater choice, as identity credentials and devices are offered by providers using
interoperable platforms; and
· Opportunities for innovation, as service providers develop or expand the services offered
online, particularly those services that are inherently higher in risk;
Definitely read the rest. It’s a draft bill, PLEASE talk to your representatives to discuss possible changes.

Discussion on the above.
It is possible that this system could get out of hand. People who the bureaucrats in charge of this think are loud mouthed, possibly terrorist, or just simply spammers, are marked. It is my opinion that this bill is the reason Lieberman may have recommended Obama take executive powers over the internet. Shut this down, eliminate the bill, restart the network on Internet 2, in which case this is just fueling Obama’s bill.
Which takes into consideration whether this is just a tug of war tactic or actually giving Internet 2 potential. In the case of the latter, I think maybe this bill is forcing Internet 2. From the mainstream perspective (http: / / www . wash. k12. mi. us/techservices/files/aboutinternet2.pdf):
“About Internet2®
Internet2 is a research and development consortium led by over 200 US universities working in partnership with industry and government to develop and deploy advanced network applications and technologies, accelerating the creation of tomorrow’s Internet.

The Internet2 community is:

Clearly things are being aligned to move forward with the complete suppression of the Citizens of this country…
Without the internet, how would you know if Citizens were, for example, being rounded up along the Gulf Coast? Or if Citizens were being loaded on to trains in Los Angeles? Or anything else of that nature?

So Lieberman, a jew, wants to give Obama, a negro, the power to take away our First Amendment rights. You know, suddenly it seems the White Supremacists were right all along. I may have to rethink my previous avoidance of those groups.

Folks better start thinking about obtaining a Amateur Radio license. It is easy to get now since they dropped the morse code requirement for a entry level license. Used and new gear is relatively cheap to buy. Once the pervert in chief shuts down the internet at least you will still be able to communicate inside and outside of our borders. Everyone should at least buy a cheap shortwave receiver. You will receive the most accurate news about what is going on in our country by listening to shortwave stations located in foreign countries. You can obtain information on licensing by Googling in ARRL.

Not a good idea to turn off the internet. How will this effect healthcare? So much of that data now follows through the internet. Nighthawk rad services, and other remote diagnostic imaging services would be unable to work. Tech support for those systems would also be hampered or stopped completely with no net access to customer sites. Does no one think about this stuff before writing up this massive load of crap?

There is more to this. We are in the midst of a White House Coup that’s similar to the Business Plot of 1933. Obama is considered a member of the Coup and there are already news blackouts here in Chicago of the Blago trial and the FBI drug stings that nabbed more than 2200 people. The sale of drugs are FUNDING black-ops in support of the White House Coup. If you remember Cheney’s Assassination Operations, there is one operating in the Chicago Area. This operates much differently as their goal is to make the murders appear as an act of God or an accident. One group in this area may be responsible for more than 80 murders over a 20 year period and all have been considered an accident or act of God. Who’s involved will surprise you and please realize there are witnesses to explain who is involved and how it works.

Thank Goodness Lieberman’s presidential campaign failed, he’s one of the worst, most aggressive, Communists in D.C.
It’s evident that the political establishment deeply resents the free-wheeling give & take that flows through the web. They’re control freaks careeless of the 1st Amendment to the Constitution, which says in part, “Congress shall make no law abridiging free speech,” which exactly is what Lieberman & his gang are attempting to do, impose a law restricting free speech.
This is clearly in direct violation of the 1st Amendment.
To quote a friend, “I’m glad I have a basement full of ammunition.”

If the Republicans are set to take control of congress, one of the things Obama can do is to neuter the power of congress by having them pass all kinds of bills giving him power without congressional oversight.
In Venezuela, their congress gave Chavez so much power through congressional acts that it became a rubber stamp. Congress basically committed “suicide” as a branch of government, making Dear Leader all-powerful.
The same thing will happen here before November.

“There is no chance of honesty if there is NO free press” followed by “When did they become corrupt?” you would know that the Commander In Chief Obama have been following along ever since.
Why aren’t PEOPLE UP IN ARMS as it does not take much history to figure out this one.
Check out 2FaceTruth.com
Once getting your head around my huge credibility you will understand that the information is getting out.
Few if any in the US Government haven’t heard of Mr. Bellavia who has been nominated for the Medal of Honor; and more importantly why he would share share his “findings” with me and not his corrupt “friends” in media like Glenn Beck.
So ask yourself what the systemically corrupt US Congress plan on doing next.
They also know that when you don’t have truth on your side and information is traveling at light speed then nor can you call on God for help.
When you don’t have God-Truth-Logic at your side, you have nothing.

Bobby Fischer A Chess World Championship Grandmaster once was once quoted as saying, “Jews have an insatiable desire for other peoples property.” In historical terms he is quite right. The Jews control through ownership the media networks and organizations of the United States, they own the vast majority of Newspapers and Magazines, they literally control and own the Stock Market and most of the International and national Banks, they own the Israeli Lobby Group AIPAC and they nearly have full and complete control over the US government and the Supreme Court including the Presidential administration and its staff of advisors. They have a near complete control over all security and even hold key positions regarding the techno-communication industry. Based on the above, when an Israeli Prime Minister declares that the US is controlled by Israel, does anyone doubt it?
Now either the Jews are industrious or so wedded to only hiring jews and keeping every other religion or race out of the running when it comes to opportunities in the corporate world, or they have only one aim and that is total control of their own and the clique that marks them apart from every one else, the chosen people as they say. Bobby Fischer isn’t so far wrong in his monumental pronouncements, but the Israeli Jewish owned and controlled press tried to destroy him for his remarks and treat him as a mad man an anti semite, and being Jewish himself, that was hard for them to do. Yet in some cases they even tried to say he was a Jew at all. They stripped him down and tried to make a fool of him, when at one time he was their undying Champion. So if they could do that to him, his being a Jew, what do you think they would do to you not being one, is a good question to ask yourself? As for cutting you off the internet, these same Jews that have an insatiable desire for other peoples property, would like to obtain for free, a full and complete control over the internet, so they can place a toll on its usage, forcing you to pay through the nose, for what was once yours for free. Bobby Fischer the World’s Greatest Chess Championship Grandmaster, if he were alive today, wouldn’t like that at all. Just saying! Now keep your Jewish grubby hands off of our internet, can you hear me Rahm Emanuel you little AIPAC White House ballet dancing Presidential advising jewish rat. Its too bad that Americans have fallen asleep so early in the game.

It will take up to 4 months to locate and destroy or imprison any dissenters! That way the rest of the world won’t be able to see the brutal crackdown which is coming when the American people wake up and decide they don’t want to be a “bot” beholden to the Communist Libturds currently in control! First a propaganda campaign will hit the airwaves and will be supported by the Liberal mainstream media, expounding how dangerous the Tea Party group is and that it is really a domestic terrorist organization with ties to extremist militias as well as extreme right-wing hate groups (Evangelical Christians will also be considered a hate group at this time)! Then there will be a fake terrorist attack/disaster, orchestrated by the Libs and their masters to implicate the Tea Party/other groups of dissenters! Martial Law will then be declared in the wake of this “attack” and communication ie (the Internet) will be shutdown! Then the real scary stuff will begin! The Tea Party protesters and other visible dissenters will be the first to be crushed by Waco/Randy Weaver type assaults followed by a round up of anyone associated with these groups! Those who are not killed outright will be detained in concentration camps (also called detention centers)! The Constitution will also be suspended, there will be no elections at this time due to current events, the reason given would of course be stability of the government could be affected if elections were held as well as more attacks from the “domestic terrorists”! A de facto fascist/Communist type dictatorship will be installed with the “blue helmets” supporting the remnant of the military who have not defected and providing security for the “dictator”! All it would take for this or any similar scenario to take place is for the American people to do nothing rather than standing up and opposing this through force if necessary? “All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing!”

No president should have the power to control free speech. President Obama has the same personality profile of Chavez and a Hitler according to Dr. Ablow. Chavez has shut down the internet and press in Venezuela. As a student in history Obama will be the worst president in in the history of the United States. He believes in redistribution of wealth, government take over of industry, banking education, and health care. This is how dictators operate. Keep in mind that Castro, Chavez, Stalin, and Hitler did the same thing. We are fortunate that we have a strong constitution, strong military, and people who will vote him out. He is a risk to our national security in his reckless behavior of coddling Islamic countries who have a hate of US values and principles. Bowing before world leaders has shown weakness and Islamic terrorists will use that against the US. Giving this president the power to shut down the internet is dangerous for American citizens who believe in the values this country was founded up. If you believe that the founding fathers were better at governing and their values of free speech then tell your elected officials to vote against this bill.

For those that hate Jews and Israel you need to study history. It is sad that so many ignorant people are allowed to post on this site. I see hate when I read it. White supermacy eats at the principles of what our founding fathers wanted for this country. You may learn by reading history the country was founded on Christian and Jewish priciples. Your hatred of Jews only emboldens the Islamic terrorists who would cut your throats in a heartbeat. Not all banks, newpapers, business, etc are owned by Jews. Christians control the majority. Read history and stop running off at the mouth until you can carry on a civilized conversation. Hate is what will destroy this country.

And keep your eyes wide

This bill is LIMITING the time frame to 4 months. Do you understand the word LIMITING? Too bad this wasn’t suggested when AWOL IDIOT LIAR BOY GEORGE was in office, maybe they would have limited CARNIVORE or the centralized e-mail tapping set-up he put in place.

Putting that kind of power into a tyrants hands and is also rumored to be an alcoholic as well is just plain stupid! Blame Bush for whatever you want but Bush is not the one with in office demanding the ability to shutdown one of the primary means of communication and commerce, Obozo and the Clown Posse are the Libturds who crave that power!

Talk about disaster, I don’t think anyone in the world fully comprehends what shutting down the internet would do, not only to communication but to industry as well. Banks would lose the ability to carry on transactions, most communication systems today (including telephone networks) rely heavily on the internet. Hospitals and power companies also rely on the internet for many functions. Transportation, shipping and airlines do most of their booking and other operations through the internet. Shutting down the internet would bring everything to a screeching halt. Orders for supplies to store would not get to their central offices… so stores would be without supplies, even if they did get their orders in the truckers and shippers would most likely not get their orders for pickup and delivery. Faxes are disappearing as e-mail takes over that dinosaur spot and many businesses no longer use them. Someone needs to seriously THINK about this before they sign that bill. If it passes it may go down in history as one of the biggest blunders ever.
