Very good call - President Trump on the Internet

Great call - shows that he has people who understand the real nature of the internet. From Reuters:

Trump opposes plan for U.S. to cede internet oversight
U.S. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump opposes a long-planned transition of oversight of the internet's technical management from the U.S. government to a global community of stakeholders, his campaign said in a statement on Wednesday.

Congress should block the handover, scheduled to occur on Oct. 1, "or internet freedom will be lost for good, since there will be no way to make it great again once it is lost," Stephen Miller, national policy director for the Trump campaign, said in a statement.

Good - one of the things that makes the internet so robust is that, at its heart, it was designed to route around damage. Initially, hardware was pretty fragile so if a router somewhere went down, the other routers in the network would see this and route packets of data through a longer chain to get the packets from Point A to Point B. It would not be as efficient and would take longer but the packets would get through unharmed. This has extended into a much larger scope thanks to the hacker ethic. If some entity attempts censorship, traffic will route around the censors and get to its intended destination. The internet today is basically the wild wild west where anything goes and we are far better off for it.

To allow an independent non-governmental body of bureaucrats to control the internet would throttle it - drain it of its life force, steal its mojo. Of course, the one-world-government people are frothing at the mouth over the opportunity for control:

Technical experts have said those claims are baseless, and that a delay will backfire by undermining U.S. credibility in future international negotiations over internet standards and security.

Bull. Fscking. Shit. I know of no higher-level network admin who thinks this is a good idea. The only people coming up with this nanny-state claptrap are the bureaucrats.

On this decision alone, Trump gets my vote.
