I suspect you already have this problem in the former countries that
are now provinces of the EU. We tend to lag a little behind the
totalitarian governments of Europe.

The following are the first five paragraphs of '"Emergency Control" of
the Internet' excerpted from Global Research 083009
http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=14964
You have to hand it to congressional Democrats. Mendacious grifters
whose national security agenda is virtually indistinguishable from
Bushist Republicans, when it comes to rearranging proverbial deck
chairs on the Titanic, the party of "change" is second to none in the
"all terrorism all the time" department.
While promising to restore the "rule of law," "protect civil
liberties" while "keeping America safe," in practice, congressional
Democrats like well-coiffed Republican clones across the aisle, are
crafting legislation that would do Dick Cheney proud!
As the Cybersecurity Act of 2009 (S.773) wends its way through
Congress, civil liberties' advocates are decrying provisions that
would hand the President unlimited power to disconnect private-sector
computers from the internet.
CNET reported August 28, that the latest iteration of the bill "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."
Drafted by Senators Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) and Olympia Snowe (R-ME),
"best friends forever" of the National Security Agency (NSA) and the
telecommunications industry, they were key enablers of Bush-era
warrantless wiretapping and privacy-killing data mining programs that
continue apace under Obama.
