I don't support government intervention in the Internet besides child porn
What?
We are speaking of terrorists that use internet for recruiting people. The government must fight this. Ok with wanting less federal government intrusion in the life of Atlasians, but here we are speaking of terrorists that might kill Atlasians and the government shall do everything possible to protect Atlasians.
The concept behind the proposed bill is obviously good, but it needs work on language.
Speaking as the Secretary of State, I must strongly agree with Cris on this issue. This is not a debate over net neutrality or free speech: we are talking about people who are actively trying to recruit our citizens to kill Atlasians. To allow this to continue compromises our national security and leaves the door open for another attack on our soil.
As Blair and others have noted, this bill needs a lot of work - at present it is much to vague and basically gives me a blank check to do whatever the hell I want (not that I'm complaining
) - but the principle behind it is sound, and I hope the House will do the necessary heavy lifting to get this proposal into shape.
