Government showdown could break up Internet

The arrogance of the Bush Administration knows no bounds. To assert that the U.S. should retain sole oversight authority on technical and administrative infrastructure of the Internet is the height of egotism. If the United States is to exist as part of the world community, it must behave as a good neighbor – something for which this administration has neither aspirations nor skill. Our country cannot afford another day – let alone another year – of this administration’s ineptitude. Write to your Representative and Senators to tell them that the Internet belongs to the world, not the United States, and ask them to take measures to stop the Bush Administration from pulling the plug on our connection with the rest of the world. You can find your Representative and Senators by clicking here and choosing to ignore the ad. Do not wait.
