Politics...yarrrg

I only wanted to link to this because of a fantastic idea it brought up. (you have to get to the end before it appears...or just skip to the last paragraph.)

Q: Is it possible to just delete the internet?
A: Shit yeah it is.

I've flogged this idea more than a few times here...the internet is not a magazine, it's not a show, it's not an archive for everything humanity has created. (altho it is all those things)

The internet is just a signal. The biggest money making signal that anyone has ever concocted because it has EVERYTHING on it.

Some might claim it's too big to fail. I'd claim there are a few fingers that could hit a few power-buttons on a few uber-powerful servers, and it's all gone. You tune into static enough times, you move on to a different channel.

Not that I'm buyin' stock in newspapers or anything, I'm just pushin' a little idea...
