The governments want to know who we are and what we are saying, the police and other
authorities would merely be gathering the information. The reason is quite simple, until
now they could tap the phone or read your mail, now we have social media and they have
a difficult time trying to control it. If people actually had a means to speak their mind with
real truths that the government could not influence, control or monitor that would be a very
bad thing indeed. How can you control ideas and thinking when you know some of the
content and you don't identify who said it? The government is afraid of us having such a
liberating experience therefore they must find a reason for us to accept and give up our
new found freedom. There is one positive thing about this, both the Liberal and Conservative
elements of power are equally as afraid.
See the Internet could be what draws us together or indeed sets the seeds of our own social
destruction, and it all depends on who controls the leavers and who gets control first.
In any event if we could come back a century down the road we would not even recognize the
landscape socially or politically. Have a good day my fellow lemmings if we allow the government
to control the Internet.
