It's actually not hard to not belive conspiracy theories, you just have to use your brain and pay attention to facts

CLIFFNOTES:


Obama could pass some bills that would effectively give the government the power to totally shut down the internet and limit any flow of information on the internet...







i know some conspiracy theories are retarded (aka that thermite crap in the other thread) but to act as if everything the government is doing is just fine and dandy is really ignorant.

you do realize that with that post, you essentially are saying that something you find boring makes you feel stupid and that you have a very short attention span...

You don't think that already happens? I feel like its 1999, censorship will always be a part of our lives.

how do they plan to regulate a global network? there would be a lot jurisdiction issues.

and cyber-Katrina? give me a fucking break. someone should kick that lady in the pussy.

i bet this is all because the government recognizes the ever-growing power of /b/, and the reality of and anonymous coup...

well america i hope you've all learned your lesson by electing the person that is going to waste his time creating the dumbest laws ever made.

if this is true and some of the other things ive heard about Obama, then he is not too much better than bush.

these bills are not fake..

i like how everyone is just hating because its a youtube video rather than addressing the actual issue... this isnt even a conspiracy, its simply the fact that the obama administration could have to power to basically shut down the internet whenever they wanted...

explain how what obama has done is similar to what bush did

and to everyone who thinks that the government having control of the internet is an evil plot for obama to spread his socialist muslum elitist black messages, ever think that maybe it is to protect us? maybe stop a big virus or something?

Yeah guys how could you ever insinuate that Obama could turn out like Bush??!!?! I mean, he's amazing in every way! Smartest man who ever lived for sure.. I mean, needlessly wasting money on anything he can find is nothing like Bush!

And seriously, how could you think the government could have too much power?!?! They would never do anything that wasn't in our best interest! They're looking out for the little guy and his computers! This couldn't be something to stop free speech and keep people from talking about governmental conspiracies..

Damn guys how can you people who don't believe in the government to take care of everything even sleep at night? You just have to blindly follow the savio.. erm.. Obama!

Do you realize that most of (if not all) Canada's economy is based on America's? So If America's internet went down it would affect the whole world, not just us.

yeah, it's pretty stupid to blame an individual when it's a group of people voting his decisions or suggestions.

besides, the us already taps when your phone and tracks your internet whenever they want so.
don't blame something george w implemented, happily spinning already fear based societies off their rocker

btw, this makes me laugh, seeing how obama was the first person to use the internet as a medium to get people to vote for him. the guy is a genius, and seems like a decent human being. not an out of control puppet or socialist.

hing that gets me though is that town hall meeting thing he did where people asked him questions over the internet and one person had a very good question of whether legalizing marijuana could help our economy and if he had thought of that and he answered by basically saying wow, im not going to answer that and i wonder what this means about the demographic of internet users in the US...  yes, i like myself some weed, but i know people that voted for him that would hate being thought of that way....  i hope he does a good job and everything cause if he doesnt our country is fucked but he i think needs to think a little more before he says some things when he isnt giving a straight up speech.

you didnt hear about that?  someone asked him whether or not legalizing pot would help the economy in anyways and obama essentially didnt answer the question and made some comment that when taken out of context (which a lot of new sources did) was that he (meaning obama) thought all internet users were potheads...  dude needs to think more before he says something in response to a question...

Well if he straight up told you he was going to take away all your freedoms and liberties just like Bush i doubt anyone would have voted for him...

if i was him, i'd have said the same thing. i'd rather not have the other half of the country on my doorstep with shotguns and rifles.

bush never did.
and shit was def rigged because of how many people hated him. thats impossible. and every mess he left the next guy to come in and deal with he did and his people did on purpose. thats all bull.
the man was a cow.

you people dont realize how many rights you have and how many of them you abuse. if he really does destroy your life you know, you can all do something about it.

he's here to clean up your country. let him do it. you need it. you have a terrible global name. no one respects america. thats fucking sad. your minimum wage is pathetic too. no wonder everyones poor. seriously and i love the states. but i don't know if i could ever move there like i planned with such a fucking mess. not to mention the economy thats in the gutter because of the war on oil.

as for the marijuana thing, why would he legalize something that's obviously a bad thing. yeah it never killed anyone, but i know a lot of people who'd rather smoke pot than pay bills. alcohol is bad enough.
maryjane is not the biggest deal north america is facing. start mobilizing for more important things, like your minimum wages and health care for fucks sake.

responsibility is something a lot of people need and don't have.

anarchists are stupid because that's already the implemented if possible political stance the world is in.

my two cents.

wouldnt it have been better to completely ignore the question and not even bring it up then though?  like honestly....  if he isnt going to answer it just dont bring it up because he probably had another, what, like 10,000 questions to choose from.

if he had ignored the question then he would have angered both sides of the issue, instead of just the side that wouldn't care enough to try and impeach him.
