Journal Entry for Wish List Project

The major resistance of governing the internet seems to be the freedom of usage but at what cost to society do we allow these freedoms when in a sense our way of life is affected and or threaten enemies home and abroad.  Many analyst think by governing the internet you diminish the very reason for its conceptualization.  Also by governing it there’s the promotion of censorship.  I argue that their needs to be more accountability and responsibility for users of the internet.  A student paper at Rutger University explained in detail why it should not be governed, but by my impression, as usual money is the real motivator behind businesses rallying for the dismissal of the topic.
