Abstract
We have proposed that history teaches us that we require a nationally(governmentally-) secured telecommunications network, preferably even one which includes most of the burgeoning wireless industry because of its likely increased use of digitization (and, therefore, facile computerization). A fundamentally intrinsic part of this network must be an enhanced electronic postmark. We feel confident that our proposal for a governmentally secured telecommunications network with its enhanced electronic postmark should alleviate all but the most extreme sorts of needs for privacy (such as that required by criminals and/or the treasonous to conduct their misdeeds). A major goal of the paper is to provide the standard(s) by which we can, as 'standard operating procedure', expect the security of all information transmitted on the information superhighway to be assured under penalty of law, yet in a manner which will not require or permit governmental censorship of content. We address two primary concerns of telephonic and television transmissions: their integrity and the moral character of their content.
