OBAMA IS GOING TO HAND OVER THE KEYS TO THE INTERNET TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER. WE HAVE 5 WEEKS.
>What's happening exactly?
Obama is giving up ICANN, which is the organization that keeps all ip's and domains, and has the root file of the internet. ICANN currently operates under US law which means free speech is currently protected on the internet.
>What does this mean?
When Obama gives away the internet on October first, ICANN will allow countries, people, corporations, or basically anyone to buy stakes. These stakes give them power over the internet, for example Mohammed could buy out a stake and decide they want to censor anything with insulting Islam. From then on, anti-islamic speech would be banned on the internet, even in the US.
>Why do I care?
One of the first sites they will go for is Sup Forums, specifically Sup Forums and Sup Forums. If Mohammed or Schlomo doesn't want you to see something, you won't see it.
>What can I do?
Call your local congressmen and make this an issue, start a petition. Don't let this go unnoticed. It is unconstitutional for Obama to give away the internet without it going through congress first.
Bump. No way in hell am I going to allow Obama Bin Laden to steal our freedom of speech away.

Seriously guys, email your state senators. You only have two of them; there is no excuse. Email them a generic message if you're super lazy.
Jason Roberts
Wow OP, way to go overboard on how ICANN operates. This is basically a move to secure the internet, not the other way around. Basically, if it didn't move into a public space, a competitor from another country would create a more "open" one and compete with it, by removing the "US Govt." part of ICANN, it secures itself its own existence.
Carter Torres
This move would switch the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, which is responsible for interpreting numerical addresses on the Web to a readable language, from U.S. control to ICANN, a multistakeholder body based in Los Angeles that includes countries such as China and Russia.
Justin Anderson
Yea ameribros, time to man up and save the world.

Do I have to wait until Monday to contact my congressman or can I contact him tomorrow?

They probably won't respond to it right away (if at all), but it will be received.
Alexander Lopez
There's nothing you can do. There's only one way to stop Obama and everyone is too scared to do it.
Jaxon Mitchell
Ok thanks
I think if push came to shove a lot of people would but I'm afraid it would take something much more drastic
"Without the U.S. contract, Icann would seek to be overseen by another governmental group so as to keep its antitrust exemption. Authoritarian regimes have already proposed Icann become part of the U.N. to make it easier for them to censor the internet globally."
Noah Moore
Oh no! How will this affect my shitposting and watching playthroughs for games I'm too poor to buy on YouTube?
Take 5 minutes to send them an email. People that take time to send emails probably take time to vote. Your senators need to appease voters to stay in office.
Even if they end up not helping, it puts them on notice.
Ryan Hernandez
selling stakes to countries and companies? Is it real or you are bullshitting?
fuck you know china will try to buy up as much as they can if true
Luke Garcia
IMPORTANT IMPORTANT
if you want a shot at stopping this, then you must become the meme-force to stand behind Ted Cruz who is the only one trying to stop it.
We must activate the board of peace and become full Cruzlims.
Justin Green
I don't know why you guys aren't fucking all over this. This is SOPA times a million. The chinks are already making plans to chop up the territory of ICANN. This is a bigger deal than even Trump since if the chinks and ruskies get a hand on ICANN (UN ownership is no different) then we'll lose the major factor that allowed us to get this far with Trump to begin with, a free internet. This should be a priority like all of that anti SOPA shit before.

Christopher Barnes
Just create your own internet using long-distance wireless bridges to link infrastructure-mode wireless sites.
icann is responsible for two things, the DNS system and high level IP space addressing
with the DNS system, they really only manage the very top of it. they deal with the root name servers, those things just basically go "hey i don't have what you're looking for, but you can get closer by talking to this computer". the root name servers hand clients off to regional name servers, those may hand off a bit more, and in the end you get a definitive answer to your dns query. the root name server file is internic.net/zones/root.zone
they can't disrupt the DNS system at all, as they can't specifically reject or block the use of individual domain names. in this sense, they can't "censor" the internet.
with high level space addressing, they just break the space of ip addresses (for ipv4 and ipv6) into huge chunks, and hand control of those chunks over to regional internet registries (APNIC for asia, ARIN for the US and canada, etc) which then divide them further, before handing them down to individual ISPs and eventually individual users
again, just with the DNS system, they only have extremely high level control and they can't block individual IP addresses or anything like that
tl;dr you faggots are fucking stupid for not even bothering to research this

The left knows that control of information is necessary for them to retail power. And the internet is a major threat to them. You can expect whatever Soros puppet that gets control will start boiling the frog as soon as the internet is handed over. I wonder if the recent youtube monetization policy change is Google jumping the gun.

btw:
icann has never taken a measure to censor or restrict anything in it's power, ever.
the internet itself is designed to be distributed, so no one entity has complete control over it (the NSA will sure fucking try, but they're not there yet and never will get there). the moment icann starts restricting or blocking anything is the moment that every guy who even knows what a CCIE is will begin mirroring the original dns root name file, and within 2 months there will be a makeshift DNS alternative (aka the same DNS just operated by people who aren't communists) that everyone will use.
btw pic related is from turkey a few years ago when they restricted access to twitter and facebook on the national ISP level (something 10000000x more likely than what's being described in the OP) using their DNS servers. people just spraypainted the DNS servers of google (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4, remember these always) and people used those to bypass the block
incredibly intelligent people specifically figured out how to prevent large scale censoring of the internet from happening 30 years ago, being able to predict exactly what's happening now. you guys are fine.

What state are you in? Just Google '[your state] senators'. Every state has 2. Their links should be like the first result. Then just Google 'contact Senator Brown' for example and you will find the .gov contact link to email your senator.

Not a chink, little Wang. But I've seen firsthand what you chinks do to the internet and I'll be damned if I let them cuck the world like they cucked Australia.

They can easily block entire regions, though. Say, to slow the spread of news about events in certain areas.

no they can't, they only have control over the highest level of IP distribution. the most they can do is revoke IPs from regional internet registrars (ARIN, APNIC, etc) and that will do literally nothing

Great idea! Pitch it like it will interfere with the students' use of the Internet. A lot of the students are probably lefties, so blame the Department of Commerce and not Obama. Make sure to put who your 2 senators are, obviously.
You socialists love big government, don't get apathetic now.

I love the show but the laugh track is off putting i agree.
I keep reminding myself that they are literally doing a play (except for some scenes) in front of an audience, and see it as a comedic theatre where the viewers are just really retarded and laugh at literally everything.
It doesn´t negate it but helps.

You dense motherfucker. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, which is responsible for interpreting numerical addresses on the Web to a readable language, would move from U.S. control to ICANN.

while i do realize this is bad, they can't censor content on a page they can however redirect you to a fake version of the site [in our case "channel 4"].
they are handing over the keys to the main dns authority not the entire internet XD
ez fix would be to lookup the ips of the sites you visit, and if you notice it's not the same as b4 you know that it has been tempered with

Obama has fucking Violated so many laws it is hard to keep track. This disgusting and pathetic excuse a president should have been impeached a long time ago but no.....doing so WOULD HAVE BEEN RACIST!
Obama is nothing more than an SJW Nigger Ape that should have been thrown out a long time ago. Republicans are pussies for not attempting to impeach him...all because the media would go after them and us the race card. If Trump wins, I want him to shit all over Obama's so called "legacy".
FUCK THIS MUZZIE FAGGOT. He'll go down as one of the WORST if not THE WORST president in history.
