Jeez, if the government want to start a war, evidences and reasons will be fabricated to support it. The Iraq war (alleged weapons of mass destruction) and the Vietnam war (Gulf of Tonkin incident) are two obvious examples.

Yes, but by using the kill switch, a govt might think they'd silence internet dissent. (But good luck with that.)
Interesting. I never thought about someone "taking out" the internet. An internet kill switch would be useful to a government wanting to start a war. Simply kill the internet, then blame it on the country of your choice.
