Bill would give president emergency control of Internet | Politics and Law - CNET News: "The new version would allow the president to 'declare a cybersecurity emergency' relating to 'non-governmental' computer networks and do what's necessary to respond to the threat. Other sections of the proposal include a federal certification program for 'cybersecurity professionals,' and a requirement that certain computer systems and networks in the private sector be managed by people who have been awarded that license."
Why should we expect the executive branch to have the expertise and information to know how to best use that control?
