We don't have to be the world police. We invented the internet. The American people paid for it. We have let it spread throughout the world, but it remains our asset. An asset of immeasurable value by the way. If the whole world united to ask that we hand over Yellow Stone Park would we do so? Hell no! it is one of our most valuable national assets and it is priceless. Just like control of the internet, an asset owned by the US and priceless. And you would argue that it should be turned over, at no cost, to a group that does not share our core values. The first amendment was the first for a reason. We as American people value freedom of speech above all other rights. We should never consider turning over the internet to any body that does not guarantee that value will continued to be protected indefinitely.
