Fair point. You can argue that not regulating the internet at all is overall better than dealing with all of the bad proposals It's pretty never ending, and legislators and regulators don't seem to clue in over time. The downsides are very often potentially huge, and the upsides are almost always questionable. We get to question 2 with internet legislation all the time. Rather like living someplace where you get to kill cockroaches all the time. Legislation doesn't exist in a vacuum, and bad legislation is remedied in multiple ways, one of which is more legislation. The solution to violence is more and better violence? The solution to hostility and hate is better backed and more potent hate? Laws and regulations are manipulated by big corporations to their advantage all the time, sometimes in direct contradiction to how the laws are sold to the public. The best move is to refuse them that power. it's too fuzzy to be non-ideological, and, practically speaking, the world has already moved on from the question of whether to regulate the internet. The formulation isn't fuzzy or ambiguous. The proper amount to regulate the internet is as little as possible.
