story here(wow a story about Obama's administration doing good-from Fox? WTF? is it opposite day?)
basicly the senate wants to give the president control over the internet-a "kill switch" if you will(me thinks someone watched the last die hard a few too many times), but thankfully Obama and his administration know more about it than some of the dinosaurs in the senate and does not support the idea.
Clinton, of the Internet Security Alliance, praised President Obama's May science policy review, which he said would take cybersecurity in the right direction by promoting incentives to get the private industry to improve its own security measures.
But he faulted the Senate bill, which he said would centralize regulations for an industry that is too varied to fall under the control of a single set of rules without endangering the economy and security.
"We think a lot of things need to be done to enhance cybersecurity," he told FOXNews.com, but this bill is "not something that we could support."
for the record-the Internet Security Alliance is an independent group however President Obama does ask for/include/take their advice into consideration on things-which is more than he would have to do.
