Let me begin by saying that I missed the start of the discussion to
which to responded below. But it seems close enough to an issue I've
had on my mind for some time and I thought I'd comment, possibly
forcing an inappropriate connection. But here goes... <br>
<br>
I'm not sure I'm 100% with "The Internet is for everyone". It
reminds me of Internet everywhere. And it/they sound a bit like the
positions organizations like AAA (American Automobile Association)
and NRA take, in essence, cars and guns everywhere.<br>
<br>
To my mind, there are better and worse uses of cars and guns and the
Internet. And I think the ISOC should weight in here. For example, I
think there is certain infrastructure I'd like to be offline, e.g.,
nuclear bombs and plants. <br>
<br>
Is there a limit to the Net? Does / should ISOC take a position
here?<br>
