Obama Launches Plan To Make An "Internet ID" A Reality

"It appears the status quo may be finally making its moves to getting control over the heretofore free and open internet. As I and many others have noted previously, the internet is one of the most powerful tools humanity has ever devised. It frees information in a way that was simply unimaginable decades ago and empowers each of us to be as informed or uninformed as we desire.

Just last week in my post, Say Goodbye to ?Net Neutrality? ? New FCC Proposal Will Permit Discrimination of Web Content, I mused that in so-called ?first world? countries like the U.S. the illusion of freedom must be maintained even as civil liberties are eroded. Thus censorship must be administered surreptitiously and slowly. The following plan to implement an ?Internet ID? will initially only be rolled out as a pilot program in two states (Michigan and Pennsylvania), and will only deal with government services. That said, we can see where all of this is ultimately headed, and the program, called the National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace, should be monitored closely going forward."

Looks like a legit site.

I'm not worried.. I'll just use your ID #.

Wait, democrats are saying that poor people don't need ID's to vote, but they do for surfing?
Hope this isn't true

Then try this one

I'm anti big brother, but I don't see this as a huge problem. It will make you be responsible for your actions and words online. That's not a bad thing. You already have to have an ID to get your electric or phone, or even buy your internet service from a provider, or drive a car, so who cares if you have an internet ID? Every move you make online is already tracked anyway, as is your IP, so attaching your name to it is only going to be a problem for people doing shady or harmful things online.

That doesn't mean I want it. However, I just don't see it as a huge issue for law abiding citizens.

Fuuuuuck that.

retty sure this is going to be a bit more general, like if you want to use the internet for a google search, you'll first have to sign in to the internet. This will be a great tool for stifling free speech, censoring comments and dissent, and harrassing those who don't get with the fucking program and line up like good little sheeple.

If you haven't seen the movie "The Lives of Others", I strongly recommend you do. It'll give you a bit more insight into what's possible with unlimited government control and fear.

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

That said - wait till the gov't decides the internet ID card will cost $60 annually. Then $80. Then $100.

Out of all the Freedoms that Americans have given up ( I intentionally said that instead of lost, because we ALLOWED our masters to take them)

This is the one that concerns y'all? WOW....

That's right.

Because nobody is able to simultaneously multi-task concerns about other issues.

/sarcasm

:thumbsup:thumbsup - In the computer lab at school the pirates are crying. I agree about it being a bad thing in general but it will force pirate SOP playbook to go through a re-write.

lol, your a bitch to justify this, scared cunts or just big brother blow darts, nothing is good about this or responsible.

Obama's plan is just making it official so more buddies can make money. The horse left the gate years and years ago, sparky. :winkwink:

Bingo ! :thumbsup

Do you just blindly follow anything against barry. You are smarter than that.

FYI The nazis were extreme right wing , against gays, porn.

That's a great image.:thumbsup

Did you take the time to actually read it? lol ""We are not talking about a national ID card," Locke said at the Stanford event. "We are not talking about a government-controlled system. What we are talking about is enhancing online security and privacy, and reducing and perhaps even eliminating the need to memorize a dozen passwords, through creation and use of more trusted digital identities."

I can see this, hacking is becoming a bigger and bigger problem and big business wont do shit about it. Look at target, beefing security costs money and private business wont do it. They could give a fuck about the customer.

It's No wonder I took up drugs and alcohol, it's the only way I could dumb myself down enough to cope with the morons in this biz.

Do i have to get one for each nic I have?

its fucking nazi obama, hey they want total control for what?

That is how it is usually generalized but it is a lot more complicated than that and it has become just a general and ridiculous smear to use against anyone who is slightly to the right of extreme left-wing.

The point being that if you think only "extreme right-wingers" can be authoritarian or totalitarian then you haven't been paying much attention.

those who intend to do underground jobs over internet will just steal neighbours wi fi so they go and arrest him, by the time they realise what happened they will be far away :)

if you don't like you government, overthrow it. you are not powerless. don't be a pussy.

Merica..

Did the world end yet?

Yes I read it, do you really want the government to control it? I'm sure the NSA wouild love that!


For fucks sake, the democrats are screaming bloody fucking murder about the GOP wanting Voter ID, you can't see the irony of the democrats wanting Internet ID's?

Are you blind?

I thought Facebook already did this...

Pretty sure Tony is busy removing his head from Obama's Ass.

+1

:thumbsup

The usual suspects will witter about censorship and free speech, they seem to think these things did not exist pre internet.

You are ( and should be ) responsible for everything you say and do in the real world. Why should you be able to lie, cheat and steal in cyber space ?

:2 cents:

Anything that's for identification can be stolen or manipulated, that's the problem with the ID shit

Good. I hope they force you to use it Peter. Will make you responsible for all the lies you share.

As long as its possible to turn off the ID f.ex. when your surfing porn and extramarital datingsites the ID should be positive I think.

Obama has already done what he's going to do as president. He "reformed" healthcare by making it mandatory that everyone pay for it. And he killed Osama Bin Laden. He could've done a hell of a lot more had he not been so left-wing extremist.

And.... you are comparing Obama to a white supremacists who killed 6 Million jews, because?

It is really getting pathetic. I remember when i was in junior high learning about past evil governments who created the watch eye,
and murdered almost everyone who was even remotely suspect of not agreeing with the current government.

It is slowly happening all over again. Take all rights away slowly, condition the people that by installing these policies
making them believe it is for the better, safety and privacy. As soon as you log in your internet ID, there went your privacy!

What is wrong with people today? What happen to the real American? 89% of the entire US population has an IQ of a piss ant.
It is going to be so easy to fuck over the American people. Stupid is bliss, bliss is stupid.
