Obama overgiver internettet til islamcontrolerede FN

One analytic claim that this is the worst thing Obama has done in foreign policy by far. This could lead to serious trouble: On Friday, March 14th, at 3:30pm, the Obama administration announced that America was surrendering control to the UN over key aspects of the Internet (control that America had because we built it in the first place). Unfortunately, the largest voting bloc in the UN is the Organization for Islamic Cooperation (OIC), a Saudi-dominated bloc of 57 nations that has waged an aggressive campaign against free speech, freedom of the press and free expression.

"The latest foreign policy blunder by the Obama administration is by far the worst of his administration, and will cause lasting damage to U.S. interests and freedom in general. ...

It's the decision to relinquish control over Internet domain names. As of next year, by Obama administration fiat, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (Icann) will no longer be in charge. Instead control will pass to some other international body--most likely, L. Gordon Crovitz points out in today's Wall Street Journal, the UN's International Telecommunication Union (ITU), favored by the world's tyrants.

Like almost everything at the UN, the ITU is controlled by authoritarian regimes such as Russia and China, who marshal voting blocs of unfree countries to drown out free ones. These are countries that want to be able to shut down their citizens' access to the Internet, and to prevent online activism of various kinds. U.S-controlled Icann is the last defense against the kind of censorship and repression that would entrench their power indefinitely.

Why is the Obama administration giving up control over the Internet's domain names? For one reason alone: it is embarrassed by the NSA scandal, and wishes to make amends."
