I saw this post not too long ago on another site I frequent.
False Flag Cyber Attack Could Takedown The Internet
In short the post discusses the governments growing concern over the internet and security issues found within. There are claims that the internet has left North America vulnerable to cyber terroism that could mess with our power/electrical systems, trains, water systems and other key infrastructure. However while many of these systems are networked they are not directly connected to the public internet. The bigger and unmentioned concern here is alternative news/opinion sites like mine and many others that are bringing peoples attention to the offside behaviour of those running the show. I will leave it to you to read the link above and watch the videos there-in so I can move onto my main point, problem, reaction solution.
A short summary of problem, reaction, solution is found in the below video…
Now that video uses clips of 9/11 through out to make its point which to me holds together with this topic of the internet and the post I provided from the Web of Evidence site when this quote is pulled from it;
Lessig told attendees of a high profile Tech conference that “There’s going to be an i-9/11 event” which will act as a catalyst for a radical reworking of the law pertaining to the internet.
What needs to be understood about the internet more than anyting is the freedom it provides. A person like myself is allowed to speak my mind, share my faith and call attention to sketchy behaviour where I see it. There are tons of sites that talk about government, politics, war, money and business offering solid information that contradicts the mainstream news media which is owned and opperated by the very rich and often same people that are in government and big business and exercise change in public policy that want our opinions controlled. They are not interested in allowing a forum of free speech as large as the internet to stand. So here enters problem, reaction, solution.
Problem - The internet is not secure and provides too many dangerous opportunities for people to exploit.
Reaction - Scare the public to get the “something must be done” reaction.
Solution - Offer a solution which is the very thing that is desired but would be resisted without scaring the public.
The thing to take away from all of this is that as of right now people have a large means of free speech on the internet. Is there some things that should change about the internet? Of course there are. But the kind of changes discussed in the article provided will squash what is probably the last large public forum of free speech in the world. Many sites like mine would be lost in the shuffle. As a quick fact in many places in the U.S. you need a permit to protest or picket and if what you are wanting to protest is considered too contraversial or disturbing to the peace you are denied permission. Only time will tell what is going to happen.

Start to pay attention to the news and listen to what is talked about today and then what happens in the months to come. You can start to see the theory of problem-reaction-solution play itself out.
