Ted Cruz Now Using Video To Mislead Public On IANA Transition

June 25, 2016 by Michele Neylon

Senator Ted Cruz really has it in for ICANN, the current US president and the rest of the internet .. Oh and by the way, he also seems to think that the US owns the internet ..

After a protracted letter writing campaign the senator has now turned to video to help drive home his message. The video, which was released yesterday, is to push support for the rather bizarrely named “Protecting Internet Freedom Act”

Warning: this video will probably annoy you

He really needs a new hobby. ..

    I 100% agree with Ted Cruz on this. Doesn’t annoy me at all Michele.

    Why do you think bureaucracy humpers at ICANN should have complete control over the Domain System? You believe ICANN has policies which normal people even understand?

    It’s a great video. The only flaw is at the end when he says “free of regulation” because Net neutrality is just as important. Anyone who supports the “transition” is simply a dupe. The Left is as wrong about the “transition” as the Right was wrong about Net neutrality.
