Heck ... Let's cut all connections between US and all other countries then

[quote]"The Internet is likely to face a grave threat" at the summit, Coleman said in a statement on Monday. "If we fail to respond appropriately, we risk the freedom and enterprise fostered by this informational marvel and end up sacrificing access to information, privacy and protection of intellectual property we have all depended on."[/quote]

Risk the freedom - no;
Risk the enterprise - maybe, or maybe not, depends how tax treaties go among countries;
Sacrificing access to information - not unless US Congress decides to unilaterally cut all network connections with the rest of the world;
Privacy - already gone. Are you trying to tell me otherwise?
Protection of intellectual property - huh? What the heck are you talking about?

This Norm Coleman is nothing but a political hack. If I were living in Minnesota there'll be one more vote from me to get him out of office.
