The beauty of the Internet is it seems to be one thing the crooks have yet to figure out how to control. It is our most powerful weapon. .... And our worse weakness in that they know everything we read, we write, we think. Google already maintain everything we been searching for. You wouldn't believe how powerful scanning system, archiving system are maintained by NSA and even in Tel-Aviv or elsewhere available to the power that be. ________________________________________________________ Article 19: Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers. - Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Re: Ron Paul and the Internet I totally agree with you on both points: A.) Rep. Ron Paul is one of the very few politicians willing to speak the truth... B.) The Internet seems to be the only thing that is not controlled and is our most powerful weapon... But conversely: A.) Ron Paul is isolated by the Political system & only a very few have access to him - as he is ignored by the major media networks. B.) The Internet is monitored as bacchus_ii pointed out and C.) Also, there are rumors I've heard of a New Internet being developed that will replace the existing one and it will be more controlled and less free - like in China today?? Comments or insights on point 'C' anyone???
