Is it not? Based on what we're seeing in this country none of the information is going to be valid or useful. They're going to destroy all of the agencies so that none of them can ever be trusted again and drive everyone to foreign countries. Thus those countries will have trustable data.
Think endgame, not today, not 6 months now. Look at North Korea and China.
NK is well on its way to a nationally-walled internet, China would already if it weren't for web commerce and the ability for unbelievers to self incriminate.
If "they"want to disconnect us from the world they will.
Don't get me wrong, I am not looking at this as inevitable.
I am saying that things continue the way they are now, the best case scenario is we end up w/web like Brazil, sold piecemeal from approved providers.
Worst case is a complete, next generation Great Firewall - full enclosure - dotGov only.
