There was another meeting of the Useless last week and they wanted to gain "management and oversite" of the interenet. Yea, the whole fucking internet. Kids, the internet was invented by the US military and segued into our Universities, were it exploded in content, complexity, developers and users. So it begs the question, what the fuck do you (UN) have to do with the internet? The UN didn't invent it, develop it, finance it, promote it or anything else. When Marc Andreessen was developing the first, user friedly browser, Mosaic-Netscape, I'm willing to bet that he didn't cry out into the night, "I need the UN to help me with this fucking thing..!"
U.S. detractors (France) did not gain United Nations control of the Internet, the new agreement will create an body called the Internet Governance Forum that would convene in 2006 to discuss public policy issues related to key elements of Internet governance. Key elements? Like what I wonder? If we are talking of the UN, the imagination can run wild. UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said the United States deserved thanks for its work in creating the Internet, and had fairly and honorably performed its oversight duties. Gee Thanks! "Oversite duties"? Oversight through what authority? If Jeff Bezos wants to change some things around on AMZN, does he call Washington DC? No he doesn't. (unless ofcourse his boyfriend is in town)
The UN is full of fuck-ups. The UN has fucked up in all corners of the world. They are looking for a new place to ruin. They have their eyes on Cyperspace. They wan't to 'control it', 'tax it', 'edit it' and etc.
Listen kids, the Californian-pony-tailed-chubby-nerds (yes-the ones that still live with their moms), have done a great job keeping this thing alive and its integrity intact. If the computer nerds lose control to beurocrats, all will be lost.
