Secret Treaties, Oppressive Laws and Killing the Internet

From John Robb, a series of links that highlight the world we live in as states attempt reassert their dominance in the global system.

  • Secret laws, treaties, lies and extreme foolishness.  So very much a sign of the times.  A valid claim that ACTA, the aggressive copyright treaty being negotiated in secret, would gut the technology industry.  A revelation that Toronto police lied about the regulations/laws regarding their economically destructive lock-down of the city center for the G20 conference.  Stretching anti-terrorism surveillance laws to harass everyone.  A massive power grab by the government “cybersecurity” crowd with the ill advised Internet kill switch proposal — as in: we will destroy America in order to save the government and big companies.
