Careful, last time this thread got started CD went down for several hours. I think someone said something bad about Pulosi and she had the plug pulled.

Last time a Democrat was president, conservative critics of that president found themselves the subject of yearly audits by the IRS. Let's see if history will repeat itself with this president.

Typical Government, just cant leave a good thing alone and always looking for ways to screw everyone over. The internet is pure free market and regulates itself. People make money, everyone is happy the Government should just stay out of it. Next they will tax every email and or every transactions. I hate this government.

Default Before you post

Before you use a source that is not from the main stream, make sure to do a little more research.

The original bill was drafted in 2006 the bill was called Communications Opportunity, Promotion, and Efficiency Act of 2006 that would have revised and update the 1996 Telecommunications Act. I was not able to find any recent addendum to this draft, however the government is looking to re-visit the bill to TIGHTEN up the online gambling and chat sights that endanger minors.

Internet search is a GREAT tool.

Maybe you should do your research...please look up the Cybersecurity Act of 2009.

And by the way...there are mainstream sources that talk about this Bill.
