    That's one way to refer to your post.

    Like I said it's a slippery slope. A Trojan horse.

    I'm sorry, could you say that in English, I don't speak right-wing sheep-speach. Was it something about Rush Limbaugh or did you cut-n-paste it from Breitbart?

    In what way? Does the international standard for telephone numbers allow Russia to control who you can call with your phone?

    It's not China, it's the globalists.

    They're freaked out by what happened with Trump.

    The last thing they want is the people to have any power. The internet has given the people power and a voice. It's replacing the mainstream media.

    Which is why Hillary is in a world of hell, but I digress.


    Liberals tend to not have problems with globalism, because the 'one world' thing kind of appeals to their Kumbaya sensibilities.

    But, we're talking about Orwell's 1984 Big Brother stuff here.

    The left, as always, will realise it after it's too late.

    So did you not read the article or are you too ignorant to understand what it says like the OP?

    Right...because you know so much about how the internet works

    Let me fill you in on a little known secret....(not one person or organization "controls" the internet).

    You really should do some research into what you are saying to avoid the risk of sounding stupid (I mean for next time. It's too late in this case)

    How does this give anyone power over the Internet?

    Does the international system for phone numbers mean that "globalists" can control who you can call on your cell?

    All those saying "nothing will change", I wonder then why it's being done? Numbering Internet accounts seems meaningless, but it seems to me they could alter something, shutting down basically any part or all accounts, in say 30 seconds. It also, IMO seems to fall under National Security, which Mr. Obama seems to ignore. Maybe someone, knows what could be done and would explain it to those experts on this thread.....

    Don't waste your time. It is like when I have to explain to my parents that, when I say "The internet is down" I don't mean the whole (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*) thing. The still think that the whole internet is in a building somewhere.

    Just let them believe that anything and everything that happens in the world is a grand conspiracy by The Estabishment (tm)/Satanists/Globalists/Soros/Clinton/Communists/DimDernMuslims/Whatever the flavor of the week is to somehow attack Trump.

    It is broke. The lack of a uniform international system for IP addresses prevents websites all over the world from being accessed.

    The creation of a uniform system for addresses will increase access to the Internet.

    This is seriously like saying that the international system for phone numbers will allow Russia to control who you can call on your phone. It's (*)(*)(*)(*)ing dumb.

    This thread is too funny. Conservatives flock to it like moths to fire and just burn up and sizzle. They literally have no clue how anything actually works.

    But they want to govern the most complex system on Earth, the US Government.

    How would this allow anyone to shut down anything? ISP's are still going to be controlled by private local operators.

    You can't even explain how this "change" will affect the Internet.

    Obama's whole agenda is to take power out of America's hands.

    And your the kind of person who openly advocated the death of a sitting president in this thread. I hope you enjoy your visit from the Secret Service.

    That's not how the internet works.

    You can't shut a part of it down.

    It's like a road in a city, when one road is shut down can't you take different routes to the same destination? Yes.

    That's the internet.
