Free Press Warns of Global Censorship Technology Deployed in U.S.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Iran and China are likely using Deep Packet Inspection technology to monitor and control the Internet.
This spring, a Free Press report, Deep Packet Inspection: The End of the Internet as We Know It?, argued that DPI technology poses a major threat to the open Internet, giving network providers unprecedented power over Internet users. The use of DPI by U.S. companies like Comcast and Cox has already sparked widespread concern about abuses of Net Neutrality and online privacy.

Something’s up and it doesn’t smell good! We are granted the highest level of First Amendment protection to the Internet but for how long?

They’ve tried to restrict it in the past and was shot down by the Supreme Court. Despite the Supreme Court's ruling the States are busy creating censorship laws at home.

At least 13 States have passed legislation, in the last 12 years. New Mexico has already passed a draconian censorship law, and bills are pending in 10 other states.

I think they would love to cut off all internet communication throughout our Countries. Why is this? I doubt it will only stick to communist countries. Europe is Under Internet Censorship Threat.

The Chinese have been punished for typing words like freedom and got a pop up warning that it is profanity!!

It’s coming o the US too. The government may take action against Internet sites ANYWHERE in the world, if they host objectionable material. Objectionable? Anything could fit in that category!

12 countries in 2009: The PERVASIVE List; almost systematic repression of Internet users
Burma
China
Cuba
Egypt
Iran
North Korea
Saudi Arabia
Syria
Tunisia
Turkmenistan
Uzbekistan
Vietnam

The SUBSTANTIAL List; in the following Countries have blocked Christian sites, The blocking also currently includes nearly all known proxy sites, including the Google Translate tool, freecopts.net, are also blocked. People trying to access these sites are redirected to anonymous.com.bh.

South Korea
Saudi Arabia
United Arab Emirates
Yemen

NOMINAL list; This means the regulator ACMA can order local sites that don’t comply be taken down, and overseas sites have been added to a blacklist. These sites are filtering several websites on DNS level since April 2009.
Australia
Belgium
Canada
Chile
Czech Republic
Fiji
Denmark
Finland
France
Ireland
India
Israel
Jordon
Mexico
Morocco
Netherlands
Norway
Pakistan
Poland
Russia
Singapore
Sweden
Thailand
Turkey

United Kingdom; The United Kingdom is in ONI's watch list

United States; The Department of Defense filters certain IP addresses. The US military's filtering policy is laid out in a report to congress entitled Department of Defense Personnel Access to the Internet

Google may temporarily or permanently remove some sites from its search results if it believes it is obligated to do so by law, if they dont meet Google's quality guidelines, or for OTHER reasons.

Yahoo!’s terms of service state that they reserve the right to refuse or remove anything that they feel violates the terms of service or deem distasteful.

I see this. I figure they will bomb Israel soon. It's totally insane. They now want to be email buddies. What's up with that? He is a danger to all of us!

Maybe he likes Obama and think he is Muslim and is their new Savior. A guy like that wouldnt accept a Savior if he was slapped in the face by one.

I figure the UN, has plans. Since he isnt invited to any G20 meetigs maybe they'll come up with something.

I see what their frustration is in Iran. It appears they will stop at nothing to continue on with their sinister plan. Good point!

I'd like to rattle a few forefathers from their graves to see this. You are right they be flipping in their graves at such BS.

I also agree about the TPTB. I recently read the Bilderberger documents. They are only watching their own @$$'s.

Internet was created for and only used by Federal and State employees. It's gotten out of control for them, since the are, after all CONTROL fanatics.

I expect the internet to go back to government use. It sounds crazy but day by day we see the restrictions being enforced.

Soon any anti government blogger will be considered a terrorist. Have you noticed all of the pieces are fitting together, at such a rapid pace?

Yes technology has taken off so fast we cant keep up with it. The internet was never intended to be like it is, until windows came along.

This is a huge threat for our governments, including communist Countries.

They will put a ban on internet use. Maybe only for ebay, bill pay and online shopping. I think the Freedom part may soon be restricted.
