Dear John and Doves,
The Obama administration remains committed to getting its hands on the private infrastructure that serves as the backbone of online discourse.
Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman Connecticut Independent, introduced legislation last session that would have given a Whitehouse cyberczar Mubarak-like power to declare an emergency and issue directives to any private companies deemed to be critical by government. This unprecedented power would be granted in the name of protecting the Internet from hackers.
Any government involvement in identity management or security on the Internet is a bad idea. Big-government types can’t resist the urge to control things they feel are currently beyond their grasp. The Internet remains perhaps the only venue with the freewheeling flavor of the Old West. This irritates those who would become Net Nannies just as much as it does those who want to maintain power by any means necessary.
The temptation to squelch inconvenient speech is too great; no politician should ever be given a button to silence the Internet. That rule applies to Washington as much as Cairo.
