First Amendment rights will no longer apply to the Internet on October 1st, 2016. Obama is handing control of the DNS to the world on October 1st.
You just saw the effects of this from YouTube. Websites are forced to change their rules and ToS or face termination by foreign countries outside the countries in which their servers actually reside.
Why is this Happening?
The DNS Server that controls the entire internet (Everything with a .com at the end, or .org. Like youtube.com, gamefaqs.com) was controlled by the United States
On October 1st, they relinquish control of the DNS protocol to all the foreign bureacracies of the world.
The practical effect on this is that it means other countries besides the United States can take down websites without having to go to the U.S. beforehand, which has had a history of protecting its First Amendment rights.
If the U.N. wants to take down a website for hate speech, they can do so now without any intervention by the U.S. This also means all websites that exist within DNS (this means gamefaqs.com) must answer to the laws of ALL countries, not just one.
Doesn't matter where in the world your website/server is anymore, you must respect the laws of all countries or be taken down.
Since the U.N. bans hate speech, that's out the window and so YouTube is forced to do this
Republican Senator Ted Cruz, who lost the Republican Primary to Donald J Trump, has launched a countdown clock
Republicans are fighting to stop this deal, but they need to get past Obama's presidential veto before they can do it. Some democrats will need to be red-pilled on this issue or else it's getting veto'd
Can someone tell me if this is legit or just Alex Jones level nonsense.
James Gray
Its legit.
Juan Lewis
Proofs ?
Brayden Moore
is today opposite day or something ?
Mason Adams
Can't we just make a protocol that remplaces DNS?
Nolan Taylor
this already happens this is nonsense
Brandon Morales
+this
Colton Diaz
where do you live ?
Oliver Cruz
We don't need different protocol. Simply copy current list of domain names with their IP addresses and put a server running so that other people may use it - voilà! You own DNS.
Kayden James
If you press "click here", do you get beheaded?
Nicholas Diaz
so dns manually? We need to make an infographhic for that
Daniel Stewart
I wonder what this means for the future of 8ch and 2ch. The servers are in California for very good reason.

Michael Rodriguez
We don't need infographic. Average user will simply change DNS address and that's it.
What we need is a central (alternative) authority for this to decide what to host. Internet doesn't work without Stalinism.
Well, there are also namecoins, of course.

wow this got thread slided incredibly fast
CERN created the internet. or at least that's what the facts are in this timeline.
in my timeline CERN never created the internet.
in my timeline the internet was created in the earlier days of the military to create a new secret more secure form of communication, and the project was used by the earlier hackers who basically found and then began to use the internet for their own needs, and the military did nothing to stop it, but rather sat back and watched. they always wanted others to use it, because look at what it became today. today the internet is the largest worldwide surveilance system where people unknowingly or knowingly give their information to the entire world. However, it is beginning to appear more as though CERN may have hijacked the timeline for their own purposes and made themselves the original creators of the internet. in theory, how much money or power would one person hold if they were to go back in time and become the original creator of google, and never sell it?- let alone the entire internet?
here are some links, some are more conflicting than others- perhaps due to timeline residue. not everything gets changed or erased, similarly to how so many people remember things differently.
it only manages easily human readable domain names, you can still use IP's.
Good
It also means you guys can't take down websites we don't want down.
Cry some more, american.
You litterally just have to do this:
Done. Currently this already happens on your pc, you would just need to change the address of the DNS server.
See this video: youtube.com/watch?v=72snZctFFtA Ignore the scaremongering, a DNS is not an "integral part of the internet", an IP address is. DNS is simply a convenient tool for a race of monkeys who can't remember series of numbers very well.

From Holla Forums Okay, retards, read this: archive.is/S7X7c The domain control is getting privatized.
Christopher Bell
Forgot to add:
It does provide a little it of flexibility by abstracting away the physical IP address, which can change when moving hosts. This means the IP won't change when you move servers, since the domain links to a server. It also allows for stuff like high availability, sending people to the least busy server. However, all of these functions can be easily replaced by another system and the internet would continue to work just fine.
If DNS was to disappear, people would just begin publishing websites full of IP's with links, or websites that you can querry for an IP based on a name (which is basically a DNS server). Its really fucking easy to get around it and the only reason its an issue is because americans don't want their power taken away.
Yes, everything is getting privatised. You would think the capitalists would learn by now that making an easily replaceable internet service shit just means you will be replaced? If they start demanding ridiculous amounts for IP addresses there will simply be other services that provide domain names. Not as effective as having a global standard of course, but capitalism does not like efficiency anyway.

The UN is not taking over the Internet. This is made up bullshit from a libertarian news pundit.
Fact: The US has a veto vote on the UNSC.
Fact: The entire point of ICANN leaving US control, is so that the US can no longer have control over it.
Posit: If the UN obtains control over ICANN, the US will retain control over it. Making such a move redundant at best and self-defeating at worst. As such, it will not be given over to the UN.
ICANN will be a stateless nonprofit company, which all particpating member countries have an equal vote in. This is extremely useful as now the US (read: NSA) influence is marginalized, each individual country now has the ability to out-vote the US, so they can build and implement their own propietary plug-ins to the Internet which allow them to censor. Also remember that the NSA does not want this to happen, as censorship directly prevents their intelligence/blackmail dragnets from functioning.
As for whether or not ICANN will break US antitrust law, this is up to the courts to determine. At any rate, you have more to fear from ISPs abusing their power here (and being allowed to build their own proprietary internet) than from the UN.

Transitioning NTIA out of its role marks the final phase of the privatization of the DNS as outlined by the U.S. Government in 1997.
PRIVATIZATION OF THE DNS
The UN is not a private company, your ISP (like Comcast, Time Warner Cable or AT&T) are. These are the companies that want to destroy the Internet and replace it with their own. Not the UN.
As usual, Holla Forums is being fucking retarded.
Aiden Rivera
yes, and its not even only china or turkey, isps in the UK block shitloads of political sites as -explicit content- too
Adrian Ortiz
The difference is that they will be able to do it much more effectively. As I said here , ISPs and countries will be able to push over ICANN and plug-in whatever bullshit to the regular Internet that they want. This can mean anything from a Minitel/Videotex like system, to replacing the Internet with a TV-channel based service, or a full blown crackdown where only a small amount of government sites are whitelisted.
It's a problem, but the UN is not taking control.

Mark Zuckerberg destroyed the internet. Now we need a new intenet
Caleb Mitchell
Cap this post lad.
Meanwhile people will think privatization just means that any pleb can have access to it. They would be dead wrong.
They don't mind efficiency in exploiting workers though.
So, does this mean the typical less speed and access, or we have a shittier fate?

i hope nobody here is stupid enough to fall for this shitty NSA FUD. it's the anti-net-neutrality shilling all over again except this time it's secret services, not ISPs who are behind it. can't wait to see what funny TV ads they produce this time.
