I would like to issue a question here, who controls this Internet?
The truth to your question is, anybody who wants to. Hackers, activists, governments, terrorists all have the ability to control it. But probably not all at the same time. With the increase in irresponsible security disclosures by folks such as Tavis Ormandy, power and control is very much being handed to "the people". I have been campaigning for a while to get tighter laws introduced on irresponsible security disclosures, to give the government more control over the internet. Andrew Wallace
