Obama is purposefully vague about everything

Bill would give president emergency, (crisis), control of Internet.

Remember obama's comrad said, he would not let a "crisis" go to waste. You can be sure obama will take control of the internet at will if this bill is passed. It is centralized control and command hitler style.

Obama is preparing for a takover of the government under the guise of another "crisis".

....................................................................................

Internet companies and civil liberties groups were alarmed this spring when a U.S. Senate bill proposed handing the White House the power to disconnect private-sector computers from the Internet.

They're not much happier about a revised version that aides to Sen. Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat, have spent months drafting behind closed doors. CNET News has obtained a copy of the 55-page draft of S.773 (excerpt), which still appears to permit the president to seize temporary control of private-sector networks during a so-called cybersecurity emergency.

The new version would allow the president to "declare a cybersecurity emergency" relating to "non-governmental" computer networks and do what's necessary to respond to the threat. Other sections of the proposal include a federal certification program for "cybersecurity professionals," and a requirement that certain computer systems and networks in the private sector be managed by people who have been awarded that license.


Four questions that the author of this cnet blog asked Jena Longo, deputy communications director for the Senate Commerce committee, on wed 26 Aug 09. He is still awaiting an answer. He will not get one because, of course, they would be direct answers to direct questions which obama will not answer because of his stealth program to seize control of America.

The emailed 4 questions:

Charles,

Thanks for talking a minute ago. I'm reading a revised draft of the
Cybersecurity Act/S.773 dated this month and had a few questions:

* The original version of the legislation allowed the National
Cybersecurity Advisor to disconnect "critical" networks from the
Internet. The revised version says the president can "declare a
cybersecurity emergency" relating to "nongovernmental" networks and
"direct the national response to the cyber threat." That seems vague:
does it mean the executive branch does or does *not* have the power to
disconnect private networks?

* The revised version gives the executive branch 180 days to "implement"
a "comprehensive national cybersecurity strategy" and 90 days to develop
a plan to implement a "dashboard pilot project." But the mandated legal
review won't be done until 1 year. Why not wait until the legal review
is done before implementing a "comprehensive national cybersecurity
strategy?"

* In Silicon Valley and the tech industry in general, lots of employees
do not have formal training in computer security (they may studied math
or physics, for instance) but nevertheless work in that area. Bill
Gates, Steve Jobs, Michael Dell, Larry Ellison, don't have college
degrees. Will the cybersecurity certification program be open to
non-degreed people? And does the "certified service provider" extend to
services like Gmail and Hotmail?

* One section says that private sector crit. infrastructure firms "shall
share" certain information with the federal government. Is this
open-ended, or are there limits to this requirement?

Thanks for your help!

Best,
Declan
