What was the Bush Admin plan for this?

I agree 100% Cybersecurity is a serious issue, but as you are well aware, attacks are going on 24/7/365 and have been for quite sometime. Gov't agencies and private enterprise subject to these attacks already have strong security in place (for the most part). Fed control of private networks isn't the answer. The only time this is warranted is if it's provided for by a specific gov't contract supporting critical circuits from a carrier.

It's like the matrix you can't control everybody unless you open yourself to be possibly controlled. It won't matter if you are running everything from a carrier. In order for the carrier to communicate with the rest of the world it has to open the big steel door. Think about the nature of the Internet. Everything will be connected, this will mean you get control or freedom. You can hit and you can be hit.

You need to go back to :cool-smil and let the folks who do this stuff for a living talk about network security.

That's a perception. Actually, there is no security. Like Mc Cain said let's run the economy like Ebay!!! Conservatives are gonna have us so far behind. Not me. Those tea party guys aren't snmart enough to keep me out their bed rooms much less their wallets. LOL!!!!

You can do whatever you want by simply declaring a national emergency.
