Leaked proposal reveals UN/ITU plans for Internet taxes
http://j.mp/LEvK70 (CNET)
"The leaked documents (No. 1 No. 2) were posted by the Web site
WCITLeaks, which was created by two policy analysts at the free-market
Mercatus Center at George Mason University in Arlington, Va, who
stress their Wikileaks-esque project is being done in their spare
time. The name, WCITLeaks, is a reference to the ITU's December summit
in Dubai, the World Conference on International Telecommunications, or
WCIT."

If the UN/ITU do for the Internet what the UN has done for world peace
and prosperity, we might as well go back to tin cans and string.
