Say Buh-Bye to the Internet on Novemer 30th??
From Veronica, my favorite new Zipper at Weasel Zippers:
(Big Government) November 30th, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) could potentially engage in one of the largest federal power grabs we have ever seenAfter two years of this Presidential Administration and this Congress, that is saying an awful lot about an awful lot.And what’s worse, the FCC would be doing it without Congress weighing in. At the FCC’s November meeting – note the coincidental date of choice, AFTER the impending election – three unelected bureaucrats (of five) could simply vote themselves rulers of 1/6th of our entire economy – the information and technology sector.

You won't have much to do; spoken like a true Serf.
Just the way O'Bummer wants us.
Would the whole internet "tank"? What exactly will they do to us?

Anyone had probs with the URL's lately?
