GHOE Note: Why are we including this article in our CODEX section? The UN knows that without control of the Internet, getting complete control of the nutritional supplement industry worldwide via CODEX will be extremely difficult. This November, the UN will convene a "World Summit on the Information Society" in Tunis. In Tunisia, reported a February 21 Reuters dispatch, "global control of the world wide web may be decided." At present, the most recognizable Internet governance body is a California-based non-profit company, the International Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), continued the report. But developing countries want an international body, such as the UNs International Telecommunications Union (ITU), to have control over governance from distributing Web site domains to fighting spam. According to Nitin Desai, chairman of a UN working group on the Internet created in December 2003, There is an issue that is out there that needs to be resolved.

Under that vision, the Internet, rather than being a market-oriented entity controlled by no political body, would be used to promote the development goals of the Millennium Declaration, particularly the right to development, as enshrined in the Vienna Declaration.... That right refers to the desire of the UN to redistribute wealth and technology from the U.S. and other prosperous nations to the kleptocratic governments of the developing world. Furthermore, the draft declaration pointedly invokes Article 29 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which states that everyone has duties to the community in which alone the free and full development of their personality is possible, and that, in the exercise of their rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law.... These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations. In plainer language, the UN seeks the power to suppress any use of the Internet and other information technology to criticize the world body or impede its designs for global governance. The UNs proposed Law of the Sea Treaty would designate the oceans a UN-administered common heritage of mankind. In similar fashion, the Tunis Summit would claim cyberspace as a UN-regulated common heritage. Your Health Freedom May Be At Risk! Check Our CODEX/Activism Section | Main Articles Page | |
