Thank you! I feel like I'm watching this trainwreck in slow motion by myself, as we used to inch - but now barrell - towards regulating the internet into oblivion. This is ironic, of course, because the internet is meant to be decentralized and deregulated, and the very people pushing for regulation are the same ones that oppose legislation in other aspects (e.g. encryption). It's a very short hop from wanting Facebook to comply with some law, to compelling Facebook to turn over user data to verify the law has not been broken.
