Box 573 Long Beach, Ms 39560 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Founded in 1989, this organization is dedicated to preserving the integrity and cohesion of the computing society. By promoting computer education, liberties and efficiency, we believe we can secure freedoms for all computer users. The Government needs to be led and educated on the computer cultures and realms. The laws that have been pushed through our legislative system are not solutions to our problems, but constraints put upon us. The people are on the edge of a technological backwash. They will be choked on the amount of information that will be pouring into their homes across the country. Tomorrow's generations must prepare for a new society vastly different from that which we are living in now. The world is being tied into a global network at an astronomical rate. Every month more services, networks, countries and facilities are integrated into the world-wide networks than ever before. The demand is increasing. Future network implementations and schemes need to be formulated and put into place to meet this demand so that everyone can be online throughout the world. Let us be united together in information and communication. The ability to telecommunicate and enjoy the freedoms of the nets is a vital concern. Government regulations of personal privacy compromises and lengthy restrictions to otherwise legal actions outside of the nets is abhored. Our society is united in the networks we reside upon in a full comprehensive effect. Join Today !!!
