If there's anything that I know, the U.S. would do anything to defend itself from from any potential threat including cyber threat. Just for the record and for those who don't know it, the U.S. is the no 1 potentail victim of several attacks and if they have "TO CONTROL IT" that is if there need be which there is, they should. Do you know that the Dept of Energy, Dept of Defense and the Dept of State are the highest Dept with tons of classified "TOP SECRET" documents, can u imagine when a hacker gets hold of that document to use it against U.S.? For instance they attacked Dept of Energy system and gain high level security clearance to the national grid system, just like experts said, any potential attacker could have shut down an entire nations nuclear facilities in a second. They attacked the Dept of Defense system, had access to top secret access to war missles launch codes and so on from the dept of Airforce who is in charge of that Dept. They attacked Dept of State, had potential access to top secret facilities and classified files used for counter terrorism and so on. So please before anyone speaks, know that they have a valid reason for whatever they doing. |

I have often thought NL was a place to engage in reasonable discourse but when I see intelligence-challenged commentaries, It really leaves one wondering. Obama shut down the Internet? Does the Internet belong to the American government? Granted, they participation in this global infrastructure is the largest,but the Internet is a decentralized global network that is not controlled by any individual, institution or government. Even the different Internet Registries or the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) doenot boast of that much power over the entire Internet. Before posting comments or opinions on NL, a little research wouldnt hurt. |

luv2talk: People who are so quick to jump into conclusion without verifying the information, I can now see why some people call it junk news. They just digest the info hook, line and sinker without not even asking questions |

Re: Obama Seeks Power To Shut Down The Internet*HOAX* by PeeDaVinci: 8:32pm On Nov 16, 2009 |
@poster - the topic is misleading - it is a senator that is seeking that any US president (not necesarily Obama) should be able to do whatever you call it with the internet. Stop using misleading titles to muster support for anti-obama campaign. what the senator plan is crappy though |
Re: Obama Seeks Power To Shut Down The Internet*HOAX* by Smi1(m): 9:14pm On Nov 16, 2009 |

Internet technology has gone beyond America and Obama's control, its too late for him. He can't shut the internet permanently now or then. So thou shall not be afraid. |

Oh C'mon, this is jst another propaganda. How do you relate this article with Obama's speach in Shaighai to the students. He arrived by plane on Monday in the capital from Shanghai where he had addressed Chinese students, telling them that individual rights and freedoms should be available to all. Mr Obama had told his audience that he was a "big supporter of non-censorship", and that unrestricted internet access was a "source of strength" that should be encouraged. |
Re: Obama Seeks Power To Shut Down The Internet*HOAX* by davidif: 8:37am On Nov 17, 2009 |

SeanT21: What is wrong with you? Do you know Obama? When end time comes, we'll see different type of things. example: Black being the president of the United States. Why would someone on earth say he seeks the power to shut down internet. What for? So we can bow for him or what? |
Re: Obama Seeks Power To Shut Down The Internet*HOAX* by donjon: 11:42am On Nov 17, 2009 |
Even after i changed the topic of the thread to hoax! Some disgruntled elements with cranial dysfunction still want to take potshots at me. Bunch of demented nutjobs |

donjon: Some people are just stupid and retarded. They are here to insult posters, even after giving the source. |
Re: Obama Seeks Power To Shut Down The Internet*HOAX* by TmeD0(m): 6:12pm On Nov 17, 2009 |
after reading through most of the responses pertaining this subject, i've come to the conclusion that we as a people have really been brainwashed and inattentive to what's really going on in this planet called earth. @no2atheism, i've read most of post, which i usually find interesting and knowing you're a professed christian, i am amazed at your objectivity. everything you referenced about the NWO as much as people want to dismiss it and call it a conspiracy theory, i have no doubt in mind that it's true. i'm sure you're probably aware of the illuminati but i won't go into that cause i don't want to derail the thread. @ all, bottom line is people, these things are are not going to happen overnight but they are slowly happening and the only way to know that is to pay attention. these people know how to control the human populace psychologically and they have succeeded thus far in distracting the majority of us worldwide. how have they succeeded? well, it's quite simple, ask yourselves why do you think there are so many "entertainment" programs on tvs i.e. American Idol, Dancing with the stars, Xfactors and so (all these depends on the continent you reside though). all these were purposely designed to distract people from paying attention to what's really going on globally. do you all really think all these GA summits these "heads of states" attend are really about resolving any global crisis? think again! if there's any hoax, that right there is the hoax cause what they are actually doing behind closed doors at those summits (actually, after the dud televised ones) is totally different. Obama's presidency is just an experiment to see how people would react to a close to black man (even though some people will never accept the fact that he's equally as black as he's white) being the leader of the most powerful nation on earth. newsflash: Obama was never elected; he was already selected as the next president way before the "election." And yes, the the story was true and not a hoax when it came out back in April about CyberSecurity Act of 2009. |
Re: Obama Seeks Power To Shut Down The Internet*HOAX* by TmeD0(m): 6:16pm On Nov 17, 2009 |
texazzpete: really? you sincerely believe everything in these articles? let me ask you a question: who do you think controls the media? i'll leave you with that. . . Peace! |
Re: Obama Seeks Power To Shut Down The Internet*HOAX* by mrofficial(m): 6:40pm On Nov 17, 2009 |
T@meD0: Help me tell them, they think it will happen overnight like rapture, na small small. The most painful thing is that the atheists come here to say its not true, misleading many on Nairaland. If you look into the world, you'll see that it has an end. That's if you're not brainwashed. Entertainment here and there. Different deadly diseases here and there. Especially the women, they've completely lost their responsibilities in this world. They re responsible for the death of many men and making them lose Heaven. Please browse the following link, because i don't know how to embed.

@ mr.official, it's pretty easy to embed your youtube video. here's how: 1. at the site, copy the "embed" code (not the url code) 2. tab back to NL (almost nearly all browsers now have the tabbed browsing feature, thanks to FF) and click on the flash button (first button under the bold button 3. insert the code in between the open and closed "flash" tag and delete everything before the "http" and everything after the complete url: [s]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="[/s] NOTE: you can either one of the addresses because they are both the same 4. change the video dimension from the default 200,200 to 425,344 (actual youtube video size) [flash=200,200]http://insert code here [/flash] 5. and voila, bob's ya uncle! hope this helps. Peace! [flash=425,344] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgJ-w5GSaYo&hl=en_US&fs=1[/flash] |
