The original title is clearer: "No, Republicans didn't just strip away your Internet privacy rights". The leading "No," makes it clear that it's denying that Republicans took away rights; without it, the "just" suggests it's saying Republicans did more than "just" take away privacy rights. The underlying problem is, of course, the English language. "just" can mean either "immediately prior" (just now) or "merely" (just a friend).
