Protect Internet Freedom and Privacy! Dear Internet Users,
Some in the federal government are looking for new ways to control the internet and monitor what you do online. We here at FreedomWorks have been fighting hard against internet taxes, secret provisions that track eBay power sellers, and massive new internet controls by the FCC. "What's next?" you might ask. Unfortunately we now have an answer. Congress is now re-visiting a bill that could open the door to more control over the net. The original bill was passed a couple of years ago as the "Unlawful Internet Gambling Act of 2006." The regulations that will implement the 2006 law are nearing completion at the Federal Reserve. The rules will significantly expand the reach of government oversight, bringing new scrutiny and enforcement activity to a wide range of online activities. TAKE ACTION! As a result, the bill would have the unintended consequences of expanding government regulation of the internet and turning online payment transactions companies into informants and enforcers for the federal government! The internet should be free, and our transactions and our activities on the internet should NOT be monitored by a bureaucrat. This is why I am supporting HR 6870, "The Payments System Protection Act of 2008." I am asking that you take a few minutes to send a letter to Congress in support of this legislation, which would be a good step in the direction of privacy--and a blow to the politicians and bureaucrats in Congress and at the Federal Reserve that want to exert more control over the internet.
