U.S. Government Starts to Design New .NET Via LAWS
The U.S. Government's numerous agencies and the
U.S. Congress now see what a travesty the
IANA-based Internet has become. It is a Wild West
show. Consumers have no protection, and lobbyists
from outside the U.S. dominate discussions on
how the U.S. should run their network, to benefit
those lobbyists.
The U.S. Government, in concert with the 10 or
20 major players (RBOC telcos, M$, V$, N$ and
banking, cable and the media companies) will work
to design a new .NET via laws. The ISOC and ICANN
will be off chasing their dreams with the UN/ITU.
That is a very good way to distract them.
Small ISPs will be cut-off, and many countries.
The FCC will step in and regulate the back-bone.
The Wild West show will end, and U.S. consumers
will benefit, and not have to be subjected to
the world lobbyists that want to destroy the
American network dominance, and replace it with
tin cans and kite string to third world countries.
