  Jarvis: “The internet’s not broken. – So then why are there so many attempts to regulate it? Under the guises of piracy, privacy, pornography, predators, indecency, and security, not to mention censorship, tyranny, and civilization, governments from the U.S. to France to Germany to China to Iran to Canada – as well as the European Union and the United Nations – are trying to exert control over the internet. – Why? Is it not working? Is it presenting some new danger to society? Is it fundamentally operating any differently today than it was five or ten years ago? No, no, and no…”

  We don’t need no regulation.
  We dont need no thought control
  No dark sarcasm in the network
  Government: Leave our net alone
  Hey! Government! Leave our net alone!
  All in all it’s just another brick in the wall.
  All in all you’re just another brick in the wall.
