Obama Seeking International Agreement to Control Internet


As is usually the case when he tries to build support for his globalist schemes, Obama is insisting that such an agreement is necessary because it will keep hostile nations from hacking into American computers. Why he thinks that these clearly-irresponsible actors would be deterred by some toothless agreement is beyond me, but he seems to think it makes a lot of sense:

“What we cannot do is have a situation in which suddenly this becomes the Wild, Wild West,” President Obama said during a press conference in China on Monday after the G-20 Summit, referring to every country using the Internet as they wished, including using it to hack into other countries’ data.

Obama asserted, however, that America was winning the Internet battle, despite repeated hacks into the data controlled by the United States.

“’Frankly, we’ve got more capacity than anybody, both offensively and defensively,’ he said, referring to a growing escalation of cyber capabilities from other governments.

He added that he wanted to avoid an arms race in cyberspace, but rather institute international norms ‘so that everybody’s acting responsibly.’

Journalists questioned the President about recent reports that Russian hackers had hacked into voters’ election data. While he admitted Russia and other countries had made hacking attempts in the past, he declined to discuss the reports in detail, citing an ongoing investigation.”
