Who controls the Internet?
The Internet began as a Pentagon-funded project called ARPANET, a network linking computers in some American universities and government agencies.
Eventually, it was opened up to become the world wide web, connecting everything from computers and mobile phones to tablets and video game consoles.
No one government fully controls the Internet, but the US does regulate some protocols. Faced with pressures, it is now considering relinquishing some of it to global stakeholders.

No more privavy
Big brother is watching
Thanks for nothing – i didn’t learn a thing.
creepy 100%
if you are so angry you should have found the internet first placed. the internet has been born in USA. Stop whining Al Jazeera
Beasts that who owns the internet . They can put comments up things you never said or did on other matters then makes you seem crazy. The internet hates JESUS CHRIST. Amen.
Don’t let yourself and information be sensored and controlled. Start your own intranet or internet instead. Record all meetings with authorities for transparency purposes so no one can shut you down, all in the name of freedom of speech.
Freedom of speech has always been free, and no human above or below can dictate that. If it is threatened you fight for it, even if blood has to be spilled. It is neither right nor wrong, it is life. Fight, fight survive.
Remember, if you feel things are controlled, know that they are only simple humans like yourself. You have the power to do anything you wish, nothing you do is wrong if your survival depends on it.
There is only one enemy out there, and it is the greedy Apaths that do not care about no one but themselves. They are not human, therefore, they are dead. There is no wrong in running them over however you see fit.
