>I know. It's hard to say that with a straight face. However, if given the choice, which do you prefer? The US controlling the Internet? Or the UN with Russia and China able to veto any rules we want to put in place to keep the Internet free from censorship? Are those the only choices? Also, keep in mind that we have an entire telecom industry, along with the politicians they fund, that would like to be able to censor the internet. >We're not really a benign country, but we're far better than any of the alternatives out there. We've done enough wrong that a lot of other countries are justified in trusting us even less than we trust them... -Z
