Right Bobert, and we know from the recent articles in the Washington Post, that the Bush administration is already "getting to work" on shutting down the internet. They will claim it is to prevent terrorism, but what they are really afraid of is what just happened over the weekend.

Terrorist attacks that take place in cyberspace don't kill anyone, though they can certainly wreak havoc with systems and data. But when the internet is used to organize and mobilize worldwide opposition to the global empire builders--watch out!
