This CDA language in the telecom bill has me worried. It seems so clearly unconstitutional and wrong, yet over 400 representatives of the American people voted it into law. Not all of them knew on what they were voting, of course. That is disturbing in itself. I'm also concerened about the rest of the language in the telecom bill.
Communication is the essential human activity .
This bill gives large powered commercial interests a high level of control over the way communication will occur in the future. Corporations are not human beings. They do not have human concerns as their primary reason for existing. Governments are also not human beings, but they do contain a certain level of fairness. Democracy recognizes all because they are human beings, not because they are rich or they are in a special class.
