Internet Kill Switch

  The President of the United States is considering an Internet kill switch. But, is it legal? The First Amendment states that we have freedom of the press, assembly, speech, and religion. Is a kill switch taking away our right of speech, and press?
  Although I believe that the kill switch is an awful idea I don't think it is breaking the law. Taking away the Internet doesn't actually prevent you from speaking or writing your mind. You just have to find other ways to do so.  If your parents take away your cell phone it isn't like they're taking away your ability to speak your mind. It's just a tool, like the Internet.
