Internet Freedom Now Under Assault
Speaking of efforts to destroy knowledge, one of the founders of the Internet is now proposing that websites be labeled with "trust ratings" that would destroy the credibility of any "alternative" information websites that argue against things like chemotherapy or mandatory vaccination of children. This censorship effort is described here: http://www.naturalnews.com/024240.html The bottom line in all this is that the institutions of power are declaring war against the Internet, attempting to silence the truth and imprison those who dare speak it. We are in the midst of a battle of truth vs. deceit, knowledge vs. ignorance and health vs. death. The U.S. government and its corporate cronies want you to be trapped in a culture of death, disease and disinformation, and they're pulling out ALL the stops to make sure that happens. It is no coincidence that this is all happening during the global financial meltdown that may ultimately lead to the complete dissolution of the U.S. government (and all its rogue agencies). These actions are the last desperate grunts of a tyrannical police state power that senses its days are numbered... Internet Founder Suggests Censorship of Online 'Disinformation' Neil McLaughlin September 18, 2008 The head of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Sir Tim Berners-Lee has decided that there is too much "disinformation" on the internet regarding things like the danger of vaccines. Thus he proposes that free speech should now be censored using a rating system overseen by the same group of corporate cronies, pharmaceutical giants, war mongers and fiat bankers that have been robbing, poisoning and pilfering the world for decades. Of course, those same corporations themselves will maintain their own rights to free speech, which gives them the ability to promote outright lies under First Amendment protection (such as Nike claiming that it does not employ child slave labor overseas). While the proposal for internet censorship ironically came alongside a claim that "grassroots innovation is what makes the web great", it appears that grassroots companies themselves will not be part of the consortium that doles out the ratings. Rating System In order to discredit web sites that disseminate truth, Berners-Lee (who apparently kept his maiden name after getting married) has proposed to the BBC a rating system to "vet" websites with a "label for trustworthiness" once proven "reliable". This will allow giant multinational corporations to discredit websites that reveal the truth about their dangerous products, giving them low ratings. This would be done to quell the rise of "cult thinking" online. The next step will likely be to block any sites with low ratings altogether, killing the grassroots at their roots. While it is almost certain that web sites such as Natural News will receive poor ratings, the author can testify based on personal experience that NN deserves closer to a perfect score. The author started practicing a holistic lifestyle in 1997, and had 8 years experience by 2005 when he became an avid reader of the Health Ranger's articles on Natural News. Nearly every article from Mike Adams has been validated by the author's own experience. However, as Natural News is largely anti-corporate and promotes actual health freedom (i.e. hurts the profits of giant corporations who will have complete control of the new rating system), it would be unlikely to receive high ratings by the Fascist review board. Should this measure pass however, informed readers can simply sort the scores lowest to highest. Sites receiving high scores according to this Communist proposal will almost certainly be those that should be avoided. "A more inclusive web will benefit us all", claims Berners-Lee (referring to the financial benefits "all" 400 of the corporate consortium supporters will enjoy). In reality this system will promote a reclusive web. There is an Achilles heel of this system proposed by Berners-Lee however: The Definition of Defamation "In law, defamation (also called calumny, libel, slander, and vilification) is the communication of a statement that makes a false claim, expressly stated or implied to be factual, that may give an individual, business, product, group, government or nation a negative image... most jurisdictions allow legal actions, civil and/or criminal, to deter various kinds of defamation and retaliate against groundless criticism." In short, slander means telling lies to hurt the image of another. Thus, given the absolutely overwhelming evidence that vaccines (especially those containing mercury) are dangerous, it would be blatantly illegal for any company to give low ratings to a web site revealing the truth about vaccines, especially if the rating system is taken seriously enough to impact their business. What Berners-Lee is proposing is an official Slander System, and as soon as his cronies are granted the authority to "rate" alternative (i.e. truthful) websites such as Natural News, Infowars and Rense, they will find themselves in court for Defamation, likely a class action lawsuit. Perhaps they are confident enough that the corrupt US judicial system will support them the way they have supported the Bush Administration.
