Senators propose granting president emergency Internet power
A new U.S. Senate bill would grant the president far-reaching emergency powers to seize control of or even shut down portions of the Internet.
The legislation announced Thursday says that companies such as broadband providers, search engines, or software firms that the government selects "shall immediately comply with any emergency measure or action developed" by the Department of Homeland Security.
Lieberman is the sponsor of this bill. Essentially, it gives the Executive the power of GOD. This is not about protecting the American people, it is about CONTROL!
