US Senator condemns UN Internet Report

Stuff I’ve been involved in doesn’t usually make the Drudge Report but he has a statement from the Chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations on the recent report of the UN Working Group on Internet Governance.

Senator Coleman says:

* UN management is at best, incompetent, and at worst corrupt
* Putting the U.N. in charge of one of the world’s most important technological wonders and economic engines is out of the question.
* This proposal would leave the United States with no more say over the future of the Internet than Cuba or China-countries that have little or no commitment to the free flow of information.”
