"this is Hollywood helping to make this bill happen in the first place as part of its ongoing effort to remake the internet away from being a communications medium for everyone, and into a broadcast/gatekeeper dominated medium where it gets to act as the gatekeeper." Agreed. People have been saying this for years. It isn't just hollywood. The news media, the political elites, NGOs, etc are supporting this for the same reason. It's also the reason for the attacks against social media and the push against net neutrality. Instead of the internet/social media/search engines/etc being a medium where people proactively communicate and look for things that interest them. These corporatists and politicians want the internet to be a medium of broadcast where they choose what you see and how you communicate. It's been a going on for years. Look at how google now filters search and how youtube pushes their content. Look at all the content being removed from reddit. And soon ISPs will start throttling content they disagree with. The people with money and power want this so it'll continue to happen. And they aren't doing it all at once. They are doing it in stages. Each iteration, there is more censorship. Us mere mortals can't do anything about it. Sadly, it's happening all over the world now. Europe, Russia, China, etc are all turning the internet from a medium of open and free communication to a broadcasting platform.
