#1 ...Well, we've got to face (or at least the US has to face, us Ranters have known this for a looooong time)the fact that the UN fears two things about the United States:

1: Our freedom of information - that is, the sharing, trading, and revelatiopn of information or data, especially that which has a tendency to influence opinion or events, and
2: The right to bear arms.

The good news on this particular subject is that if the UN ever gets its hooks into the net...there are more than a few people who will sit right down and invent a new one. Human nature will do the rest. The UN will be left with a safe, tame, controlled net that no one except some totalitarian governments uses.

#2 They don't like the people that invented the internet having control over it, they can invent their own damn system.

Fuck you, UN. You have long overstayed your welcome in the US. Go to Geneva where the Eurocrats will masterbate all over your bloted, rotten corpse and leave us the hell alone.

Before we do something nasty to you.
