Part of what Big Media[tm] wants to do is...well, break down basic internet security upgrades that are in the planning stages now.

They want the US government to be able to mess with some core basics of how the internet works, which in turn makes the security upgrades known as DNSSEC impossible.

Years of effort on making various scams (such as phishing) much harder all go "poof".
