We're arrogant, we "own" the Internet and since we own all of the original Class A networks, the rest of the world can go to hell. We're fine with IPv4, Copper instead of fiber and Betamax.

Are you talking about the kinda' blessings that can be charged to a credit card after watching the endless infomercials on channels 32, 38, 43, 56, 84, 77....? $29.99 for a blessing from God and a Jesus Blanket. And if you call right now, we'll throw in a free molesting session with the priest of your choice! Call Now 800-Holy-Crap!

Actually, those on the right don't need to pay for blessings from God, that would be like a metal band paying for sex.

This is not a rant against Haliburton specifically, but why do they still have a 34.0.0.0/8 block. Or the other corps for that matter?
I understand ISPs, but is Haliburton or GE going to have 16M computers that need static IP addresses.
Somebody ought to require them to give them up, IMHO |

Is that true with those televangelists too? Their on the right...and who was that one that was banging Jessica Hahn?
What a bunch of hypocrites.
Oh...and I hope that fathead Rush has to. According to his own thoughts, he should be locked up for life for being a drug addict.
I don't get the whole divided issue..left or right,Republican or Democrat...they are all out for themselves and you can't believe a word they say. It's more like rich vs not-so rich vs. not-so poor vs. poor. |

said by pnh102 :Of course we own the Internet. Actually, that doesn't apply any more... DARPA is dead. The Internet as it existed is gone.
We invented it after all. So? A Lot of things that we enjoy in this country were invented in other nations and you don't have the same arrogant, eight year old attitude from them about it.
It doesn't matter who invented it any more because no one nation or company "owns" the Internet.
Oh, and God Bless America! If there is a God, he/she/it probably could care less about the B.S. politics and nations of the world... God is not an America or a capitalist...
