I have always been a fan of free speech. I guess the U.N. only wants certain groups to enjoy such freedom.

    The aircraft that hit the twin towers should have flown to 1st ave and 42nd street and then a new high rise for residents could have been built. The organization located there is a blot on humanity.

    It seems to me that you are not fully aware of the 5 treaties that are awaiting ratification (only needs a simple majority of the Senate) that will forever relegate you rights as an American to the will of the UN. No, all conspiracies are not imagined and all who follow such things are not crackpots however the majority who pooh pooh the whole thing are the one's who will shriek the loudest when the hammer falls.

    Perhaps it is time to open one's mind to the possibility that some of these conspiracy theories are in fact real and present a present danger to all who embrace freedom!

    Nothing. There are functionaries who would like to, but the UN is not the source of the power or the bad ideas. Some time in the more distant future the sources of power could shift, but the tendency of some conservatives to go after the "UN" as an overwhelming centralized threat while more serious problems are all around us lacks objectivity, to say the least.

    The world is now officially being run by morons! This is it! We as a species are creating our own demise because all adversity is artificially being removed. Another generation or two and 90% of the worlds population will be ripe for the harvest!!!!

    Stupid is as stupid does!

    There have always been proponents of censorship through government action, as well as psycho-tyrants with the same mentality, but Alex Jones' sensationalism is well known as not a credible source. UN 'conspiracy theories' are a specialty of his. It's not that there aren't people associated in some way with the UN who don't advocate despicable policies, but they are not the source of the real threats and their importance is far overblown.

    mr. Jenner needs to get with the program and actually have the sex change operation done! From what I understand all he has had done is breast enlargement he will not go the whole route and have his manhood removed. This means he is still a man. No matter what he says! But of course never let the facts get in the way of a liberal and their wacky arguments.

    As you may recall, this is one of the reasons why the move to have the FCC take over control of the Internet's base domain name servers was such a big deal. If those remain in private hands, censorship of the Internet is nearly impossible. With those in government hands, censorship is as easy as removing the DNS records to "offending" sites.

    You spent alot of time on that and I was grateful, because I was following this and did not have the research. Once I read your chronology and research, it made it easier to tackle the key issues

    It goes without saying it's not free speech if it only applies to popular ideas.

    I'm more interested in what they technically mean by "UN to Censor the Internet". What does that actually mean? The article focuses on how ludicrous it is to call unpopular speech "cyber-violence". That's low-hanging fruit. But what is the UN considering doing?

    A while back, I posted a rather long history outlining the #GamerGate movement.

    And now I see two of the main driving forces of AntiGamerGate - Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn - testifying at the UN.

    Not to take away from or hijack Rich's post, but if anyone is interested in who these two people are and why they are important, then they might want to look at that history.

    Looks like Atlantis may be the only place left. We better get it soon, before the hammer falls.
