From my "Really, Why Bother"
essay:
`
"This raises the question--
`
"REALLY, WHY SHOULD ANY SELF-
RESPECTING STATE BOTHER WITH
ABSURDISTAN, DC ?
`
"There's email."
`
Email?
`
That raises the question--
`
WHOSE EMAIL ?

U.S. to Retain Oversight of
Web Traffic
By ANICK JESDANUN
`
"The U.S. announcement mark-
ed a departure from previously
stated U.S. policy."
`
The Superpower's "previously
stated...policy" was a LIE.
`
"Policy decisions [by The Su-
perpower] could at a stroke
make all Web sites ending in
a specific suffix [like .com]
essentially unreachable."
`
"In a worst-case scenario,
countries refusing to accept
U.S. control could establish
their own separate Domain
Name System and thus fracture
the Internet into more than
one network."
`
`
This raises the question--
`
REALLY, WHY SHOULD ANY SELF-
RESPECTING STATE BOTHER WITH
ABSURDISTAN, DC's FAKE INTER-
NET ?
`
Regional internets are the
way to go.
`
Really? Well...

'Full Text' of China-Russia
Joint Statement on 21st Cen-
tury World Order
`
After blather about "excep-
tionally broad access to open
information" (section 4), the
statement gets down to the
nitty-gritty (section 10):
`
"Regional integration is an
important characteristic of
the development of the cur-
rent international situation.
`
"The two sides [China-Russia]
pointed out that multilateral
regional organizations estab-
lished on the basis of
`
"regional openness,
`
"cooperation on an equal
footing,
`
"and non-targeting of other
countries
`
"are playing a positive role
in the process of shaping a
new international order."
`
New international order?
`
NOT The Superpower's fake.
