the internet cannot be shut down. its just a large network. you can only restrict peoples access to it. As long as there is free market there will be internet.

Could the U.S. shut down the internet? - CNN

Understanding what happened in Egypt helps frame the discussion about what could happen to the internet in the United States or around the globe.

According to internet traffic monitors and experts, Egypt's government likely called the country's five main internet service providers -- like on the phone -- late last week and ordered them to barricade online traffic.

That's sort of like calling all of the post offices in the country and telling them to throw the mail away instead of delivering it, said Robert Faris, research director at Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet & Society.

But instead of shredding paper mail, the Egyptian internet providers altered their Border Gateway Protocols, the software that routes online information.

"There's not an on-off switch," Faris said. "What it is, it's a list of IP addresses that route information between nodes on the internet. And what they did (in Egypt) is they changed all the software and the list in there to something called null routing. So all the traffic going in and out was essentially thrown away."

Faris called these measures extreme. They have been carried out in only two other instances, he said: In Myanmar during 2007 protests; and in Nepal in 2005, when the king seized power.

Iran and China filter the internet instead of blocking it, he said.

Could the United States do the same?

Technically, the United States could do the same thing Egypt did to block internet access, Faris said.

you know those two professors who created the "network" , their vision could not have been realized without funding from the DOD, who needed the technology to transfer massive amounts of data quickly.

DOD still is at the center of it's operation.

The "Kill Switch" legislation was meant to (was sold as) protection of vital infrastructure systems from foreign interests.

However in all three instances it has been used in other countries, it was used against the people, in order to stop the free flow of information.
