Thus our individual freedom are further endanger of be taken away by power hungry politicians. According to the story the bill is so broad the president could define anything as an enmergacy. But my real problem with this is the Internet is a global network and he thinks he can shut off all privet use in times of an "emergency". To me this is the chosen one way on getting more power then the president was supposed to have. What are we Mussolini Italy? God I hope the Electronic Frontier Foundation can find a way to get this bill killed.
