Government Control Over the Internet? Hell No!

The web article: InternetCensorship: How heavy a hand should the government play? written by CptloTX is composed very well, is right on point with my views about government regulation and especially toward internet regulation. Cptlotx advises that the internet needs to be “self” regulated and that we as people have the freedom of choice to choose our own level of censorship. I agree with this statement. We have the rights the rights to choose what what want to use the internet for. Full governmental regulation over the internet would be very costly, time consuming and a long battle to gain full control. Cptlotx advises that the government should pursue those who commit fraudulent crimes and activities as individual cases and situations. I agree with this statement. The government already exercises this action. He also advises that there are already buffers in place such as internet filters that are designed to safeguard people from suspicious content and materials. These types of internet securities are highly sufficient, practical and are the best plan of attack to keep the internet regulated “internally” and not by the government. This magnifies Cptlotxs statement that with these type of buffers, the government is not “required or needed” to take full control of the internet. This post is filled with detailed data to inform the reader and it presents the message very clear and concise.
