    People need chill it sounds like they are trying to protect the people. You know the sad thing is if an of cyberterrorism were to occur people would blame Obama for doing nothing or not doing enough. People need to STFU and get a life.

    This is incase of a National Cyber Threat. I don't understand how you see it as "controlling" the internet.

    Bah, this whole thing is BS anyways. Not that it matters if it goes against the Constitution, because of the friggin' Patriot Act.

    This section also outlines a number of important functions and authority of the National Cybersecurity Advisor, including the authority to disconnect a Federal or critical infrastructure network from the Internet if they are found to be at risk of cyber attack.
    It runs down to the details of the where, when how and what.

    The who is clear; i wonder though if it would not be wiser to establish the requirement to a public service in the state of the art security, rather than handling this through executive act, but that is probably finding the way in through the backdoor, with establishing a constitutional fitting mandate of supervision by the jurisdiction.
    Otherwise it would be hard to make the law constitutional I think in any ways;
    In this way the video is right, when it's naming potential in the not so obscure implications of the law, however, these potentials are in name taken care of by the current legislative and constitutional body.

    I wonder how problematic it could be in comparison to the recent very problematic legislative agendas of the Bush administration and I hope that the climax of acceptance has to an extent at least vanished.
    Making this a civil liberties issue is imo against the vocation of the voters.

    However;
    Infrastructure to the good of everyone must be not protected, but maintained.
    The sentiment expressed in the video seems to be talking more about "conservation" than "maintenance" potentially in a way that renders the service useless.
    That can not be in favor of the users of telematic, or "cyber" infrastructures.

    FFS, so this is being blown way out of proportion and made with shitty transitions to make it seem more important than it is...just like a bazillion other things on the internet.
