SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``One Global Internet Act of 2010''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) A single, open, global Internet is a vital tool for 
        facilitating the free and secure flow of information and 
        products without regard to distances or national boundaries.
            (2) The goal of a single, open, global Internet is best 
        supported by policies that--
                    (A) encourage utilization on a global basis of 
                technology standards set by international standards-
                setting organizations, including industry-led and other 
                voluntary bodies, and selected by the market;
                    (B) respect the security of information and privacy 
                of Internet users;
                    (C) respect the rights of intellectual property 
                owners and users and promote investment in Internet-
                related innovation;
                    (D) refrain from compelling Internet service 
                providers and other intermediaries to restrict the free 
                flow of information on the Internet; and
                    (E) allow trade in Internet-related goods, 
                services, information, and content, in accordance with 
                international trade agreements.
            (3) Certain governments are adopting policies contrary to 
        the goal of a single open, global Internet, including--
                    (A) mandating unique technology standards favoring 
                domestic producers as a condition of market access or 
                pursuing related policies regarding standard-setting 
                that are discriminatory and subvert the open, global 
                nature of the Internet;
                    (B) requiring that companies forfeit their 
                intellectual property in Internet-related technologies 
                as a condition of market access for commercial and 
                civilian uses or government procurement;
                    (C) sponsoring or tolerating the use of Internet-
                related tools to gain unauthorized access to public-
                sector and private-sector networks in the United States 
                to disrupt their operation or for the purpose of 
                misappropriation or infringement of intellectual 
                property;
                    (D) blocking, filtering, or otherwise restricting 
                Internet communications in a manner that discriminates 
                against Internet-based services and content originating 
                in other countries; and
                    (E) imposing market access requirements or 
                liabilities that discriminate against or otherwise 
                impede Internet-related goods, services and content 
                from other countries.
            (4) Such actions threaten the interests of the United 
        States by--
                    (A) facilitating attempts by foreign governments to 
                restrict or disrupt the free flow of information on the 
                Internet;
                    (B) promoting ``national Internets'' in conflict 
                with the underlying rationale and architecture of the 
                Internet as originally envisioned and constructed, 
                thereby compromising the Internet's full functionality 
                and promise;
                    (C) harming United States workers and businesses, 
                undermining a strong United States industrial base, and 
                putting foreign competitors at an advantage; and
                    (D) putting at risk the utility of the Internet as 
                a tool of open communication, assembly, and commerce, 
                and the individuals who seek to use it for such 
                purposes.
