Sen. Lieberman (I-Conn.) Proposes 'Kill Switch" For Cybersecurity!

Lieberman, Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, introduced the "Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act of 2010."

Lieberman has been pushing for government regulation of the Internet for years under the guise of cybersecurity, but this new bill goes even further in handing emergency powers over to the feds which could be used to silence free speech under the pretext of a national emergency.

“The legislation says that companies such as broadband providers, search engines or software firms that the US Government selects “shall immediately comply with any emergency measure or action developed” by the Department of Homeland Security. Anyone failing to comply would be fined,” reports ZDNet’s Declan McCullagh.
