Bill would give president emergency control of Internet | Politics and Law - CNET News
Glenn Beck warns us all and they call him a nut.....REALLY???
Bill would give president emergency control of Internet | Politics and Law - CNET News:
Internet companies and civil liberties groups were alarmed this spring when a U.S. Senate bill proposed handing the White House the power to disconnect private-sector computers from the Internet.
They're not much happier about a revised version that aides to Sen. Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat, have spent months drafting behind closed doors. CNET News has obtained a copy of the 55-page draft of S.773 (excerpt), which still appears to permit the president to seize temporary control of private-sector networks during a so-called cybersecurity emergency."
