Private quarters for the president and first lady. This is not part of the tour that is offered to the public. This is never been open to the public. Because of the cspan special access, you are getting to see this. Its not open to our visitors on a daily basis. The remarkable thing about this space is its a living breathing thing, it hasnt changed it also is resident johnson died in 1973. There is a document signed by the archivist of the United States. It nothing in this room it can change. We are here on the 100th block of congress avenue here in austin. It this is an important historic site. This is where waterloo was. It was a cluster of cabins.

In those days this was just a muddy ravine that led north. The men galloped on their horses and they had stuffed their belts for pistols and road into the midst of t
That is true. A lot of the search costs for finding things have been obliterated. It used to be you could find a criminal record in the basement of city hall. The internet has obliterated that. People are concerned about the impact.

As the far end of the pendulum it allows everybody to start from a position of we are going to work to keep openness as the basic principle and work act back from there with the exceptions. It sounds like you are saying, congress, keep up the good work. Just to put you on the record. Thanks so much for your enlightened legislation in the internet area. A senator from nebraska ended up being a visionary that he never expected to be. [laughter] you can layer on acceptable use policies, things that in the companys judgment like auctions that are prohibited. Sure. That has been from day one also. That was part of the protection of section 230 and 512 that provided for the ability for companies to exercise judgment and to get rid of things they believe are in the consumers interest.
