Re: New bill banning the web?

Oh man, another legislation going through because of the inability of some parents today to be parents.

Man, wouldn't the legislature's lives be so much easier if parents could pay attention to their kids, watch what they're doing, and not permit them to do things that are dangerous?

This again goes back to my "people having babies should be required to take a class on how to be parents." It is absolutely ridiculous that parents cannot be bothered to watch their kids enough to realize, hey, my 12 year old is talking to a guy who is a sexual predator, maybe I should stop that.

That being said, this bill will not have any affect IMO. The internet is not a US thing. The US has no ownership of it (although Al Gore did invent it ). Maybe they can try to control the sites that they are funding, but past that, there is nothing that they can do. It is global. Our world is global. If they want to really do something about it, they need to make some sort of global governing body with the ability to penalize and cooperation of every country (good luck on that one)
