"We need" - Who are WE?
As far as I know, Google and Facebook helped and helping people in places where almost everything is nationalized - by providing alternative to local gov-controlled media by making the information and data available to anyone with internet connection.
As far as I know, users are sharing and storing their data and trusting those organizations, rather than their governments. The problem starts when governments try to enforce the providers to tap or provide records our of their data centers.
The internet is good as is, and improved every day, and will continue improving. We need no nationalization over here.
Not really, thanks, but no!

- tzury 9y agoThis will evolve and changed over time I believe. But, we are certainly in a far better place than we were 2 decades ago regarding freedom of speech and information availability, aren't we?
