Vint Cerf warns Web freedom is under attack

http://j.mp/KFXskP  (The Hill)

    "Father of the Internet" Vint Cerf on Monday warned that Internet
     freedom is under threat from governments around the world, including
     the United States.  Cerf, a computer scientist who was instrumental in
     the Internet's creation, now employed by Google as its "Internet
     evangelist," said officials in the United States, United Kingdom and
     Europe are using intellectual property and cybersecurity issues "as an
     excuse for constraining what we can and can't do on the 'net."
