Topic: Internet Kill Switch

Section 1072 of the NDAA outlines a strategic plan for the management of the electromagnetic spectrum for national security purposes. This is interpreted as a move toward total government control over all wireless and wired communication methods. The provision is linked to previous discussions regarding a potential "internet kill switch" that could be used during civil unrest or food riots.

The Obama administration and GOP staffers are pushing for "Internet Kill Switch" legislation, using the threat of cyber terrorists opening the Hoover Dam floodgates as a talking point. The Bureau of Reclamation and Wired magazine have debunked this, stating the dam's control systems are not connected to the internet. The hosts mock the proposal for a "Geneva Convention on Cyberwar" involving Microsoft and Northrop Grumman.
