Here's a must-read article on the coming U.N.-sactioned Internet power
grab, and the reasons behind it. Essentially, countries that maintain
control by keeping their population in the dark (China, Syria, North
Korea, and so on) don't want the Internet to be free. If their citizens
knew the truth, they might revolt! Keep 'em dumb, China says, and you
can control 'em.
As this article's author points out, however, the
Internet works rather well just the way it is: unregulated, free, and
distributed. If you try to put one group in control of it, it will
inevitably become just another channel for control and profit, in the
same way that virtually the entire television media has become in the
United States.
