The internet is amazing

[Gary Fowler]

I really don't know what we would do without the internet today and how we got by without it. Recently I was in need of a cornering light for my 17 year old motorhome which is on a F53 Ford frame. Of course Ford doesn't stock many parts for this other than some of the engine and suspension parts.
Anyway a quick search on the internet turned up not only the cornering light but also a full set of lights for both side including headlight, cornering light and parking light for $138. Not only was I afraid I wouldn't find my light but that the cost would be $$$$$$$ like they are for newer cars.

I am so thankful for Google and the internet for finding my parts for this and other repairs to my aging motorhome and other items needed. It has saved me hundreds of dollars rather than buying locally at exorbitant prices for repair items.

Agreed here. I use it mostly as an encyclopedia to study people, places, history, geography, stuff and, of course, TBN.
Cheers,

Enjoy it while you can. The U.S. is giving up control to the U.N. basically. Even N. Korea will get their turn to tun it. Say "goodbye" to security, uptime, email privacy, default language preference and "hello" to threats, abuse, identity theft, phishing volume, and porno laced ads.

Welcome to the New World Order. (But your private email server won't be important to anyone).

There will be private internet systems. They are coming. HS

For the life of me I can't figure out how giving foreign governments control of major infrastructure is NOT a national security risk.

It is a wonderful resource to find virtually anything you want or need and to get diverse opinions on topics that you thought you knew all about.

Pls explain: 1) how the internet is inherently American? 2) how you "give up control" and 3) what you think the UNs role in the internet actually is.
N Korea already has access to the internet by the way. Their citizens don't, but the internet exists in N Korea.

And you can find so many interesting facts, such as polar bear diets.

When a foreign government dislikes or bans a sight you may need or like then you will understand!
