Ok - I'm inspired. Please advise before I start plastering this in every forum I know.
Internet Bill of Rights.
Keep it simple. We already have our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Isn't it just this simple?
The Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and every declaration and right afforded therein, shall apply to the use of the internet.
The internet shall be regarded as a digital town square and the users of the internet shall be afforded every right they are already afforded as United States citizens.
No power or person - governmental, military, intelligence, corporate or otherwise - shall have the right to throttle internet access, to silence lawful free speech, to limit the freedom of the press, and the right to peacefully gather together.
We the people . . .
