Bill Clinton Wants US or UN to Create Internet Truth Agency…

Full blown crazy.

(Politico) — Bill Clinton doesn’t like all the misinformation and rumors floating on the Internet. And he thinks the United Nations or the U.S. government should create an agency to do something about it.

“It would be a legitimate thing to do,” Clinton said in an interview airing Friday on CNBC.

The agency, Clinton said, would “have to be totally transparent about where the money came from” and would have to be “independent” because “if it’s a government agency in a traditional sense, it would have no credibility whatever, particularly with a lot of the people who are most active on the internet.”

    That’s a great idea BJ Bill can we start with the truth from you and Hill about Whitewater and then we can go into the sexual relations that did happen in the oval office.
    How about obama not being a natural born citizen but Congress covered it up and let him become president?

    The Government running a truth department. I can’t see how this would become a bad thing and turn into some sort of Nazi department.

    The Government and truth the biggest joke in all the land.

    “The Senators Who Say Merely Linking To Certain Sites Should Be A Felony

    I wrote earlier about how the new PROTECT IP Act guts parts of the DMCA, but as you dig deeper, it’s looking even worse. The original (and now updated) article focused on the use of the term “interactive computer service,” which was in a draft copy of the bill. At the last minute, that was changed instead to be “information location tool.” While, at first, this may seem to be a narrower definition, there are some serious concerns that this effectively makes it illegal to link to any website that is accused of being “dedicated to infringing purposes.” That’s because an “information location tool” is defined under current law to be: a “directory, index, reference, pointer, or hypertext link.”

    Yes, you read that correctly: a link is an “information location tool” and such tools may be barred from pointing to sites deemed “dedicated to infringing” purposes. That seems like a massive breach of the First Amendment. If there is relevant information, as someone covering the news, why should I be prevented from linking?

    Making matters even worse is a companion bill introduced by Senators Amy Klobuchar, John Cornyn and Christopher Coons, which would ratchet up charges for sites that stream infringing works to a felony. The specific text of the bill is not yet public, and it’s likely that it just extends the “public performance” rights to section 506a of the Copyright Act (which only covers distribution and reproduction rights today). But, that leaves open a huge question of what is considered a “public performance” and how you define “streaming” in relation to a public performance. I can see it reasonably applying to a site hosting the content and streaming it… but what about an embed or a link, in which the content never touches the site in question at all? Tragically, we’ve already seen that the feds consider merely linking or embedding to be a form of a felony — so it appears this bill is designed to make that even clearer, and that is really dangerous.

    Put it all together, and our elected officials are now claiming that linking to something can be a felony. Yeah. Scary.

    It seems that we really should highlight the list of Senators who have sponsored these bills, and who are telling you that linking to content should be considered a felony. The first bill is sponsored by:

    Patrick Leahy
    Orrin Hatch
    Chuck Grassley
    Charles Schumer
    Dianne Feinstein
    Sheldon Whitehouse
    Lindsey Graham
    Herb Kohl
    Chris Coons
    Richard Blumenthal
    Al Franken <– Updated to include, missed him on the first pass

    The latter bill is

    Amy Klobuchar
    John Cornyn
    Chris Coons, who has the distinction of sponsoring both dreadful bills
    So, there you go. The Senators who think it's okay for the government to put people in jail for linking."

    “The agency, Clinton said, would “have to be totally transparent about where the money came from” and would have to be “independent” because “if it’s a government agency in a traditional sense…”

    What Slick is alluding to here is the formation of an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization).

    (Plenty of non-profit NGO’s receive money handed to them from the government. One of my neighbors worked for such an NGO, called the Free Iraq Foundation, which has received funds from the State Department.)

    “According to the group’s 2002 IRS Form 990, Free Iraq Foundation, Inc. received $1.66 million in support for 2001, 99.97 percent of that figure coming from public funding sources. In 2000, the group’s income was $1 million. For 1998 and 1999, $265,000 and $580,000 respectively.

    “The Iraqi-American National Network (IANN) is a project sponsored by the Free Iraq Foundation.”

    The Muslim Students Association helped developed the Free Iraq Foundation.

    http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Iraq_Foundation

    From back in Dec, 2005:

    Who Will Control the Internet?

    “Foreign governments want control of the Internet transferred from an American NGO to an international institution. Washington has responded with a Monroe Doctrine for our times, setting the stage for further controversy.”
