We don't really have the luxury of pretending that the role of ICANN
is limited to names and numbers. The NSA issue is making the issue
of governing the internet something we have to deal with. ICANN
really has the only infrastructue on the planet to deal with it. You
can't use the UN because the US has veto power. <br>
<br>
The nature of the Internet is that it is growing exponentially. The
Internet is the center of human evolution. The Internet is central
to humanity. The Internet is humanity's collective brain. It is
crucial to the future of human evolution.<br>
<br>
The United States is making a move to seize control of the internet.
We can not let that happen. I don't know if the US is in some sort
of mental breakdown or if there's a back story we don't know about
but we are the people who are in the right place at the right time.
Think of us being on an airplane that is about to crash and we're
the ones who happened to be seated in front of the side exit. It's
up to us to make it happen.<br>
<br>
For the last couple of months I've been working on the philosophical
foundation for world government arising out of ICANN. So far no one
is really taking this seriously but it's time to wake up and read
it.<br>

The way I see it we can either step up or suffer the consequences of
not stepping up. I think we should step up.<br>

<h1>Why do I care about government spying? I have
nothing to hide.</h1>
<p><br>
In response to government spying on all our phone
calls some people have said to me, "Why do I care
about government spying? I have nothing to hide. So
what if the government is tapping into everything we
do?" Obama says, "We're going to have to make some
choices as a society." <br>
</p>
<br>
The 4th Amendment of the Constitution says.<b> "The
right of the people to be secure in their persons,
houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable
searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no
Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause,
supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly
describing the place to be searched, and the persons
or things to be seized."</b> Obama is saying that a
secret court has determined that all Verizon customers
are criminal suspects, including me. That is just plain
crazy on its face. <br>
<br>
Obama and every member of Congress took an oath that
includes,<b> "I do solemnly swear that I will ...
preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the
United States."</b> That oath has now been broken by
the President and every member of Congress that supports
government by secret courts and secret laws. <br>
<br>
So an answer like "I have nothing to hide.", misses the
point. I don't recall anything in the Constitution that
says that you can amend the Constitution by deciding to
ignore it. I don't recall a rule that says that if a
Republican president and a Democrat president both break
the same law then the law becomes nullified. Obama and
the Congress have effectively suspended the
Constitution.<br>
<br>
What they are doing is declaring that the Constitution
itself, the document upon which all laws are founded, is
void. Obama and Congress have declared that the rule of
law no longer applies in America. Without the rule of
law and the Constitution the America we knew no longer
exists. It is wrong and it rises to the level of treason
against the Constitution. <br>
