Mark Zuckerberg calls for internet regulation
- mrosett 8y agoMy knee-jerk reaction is to rephrase this as "Facebook calls for regulatory moat." A lot of these ideas seem reasonable, but I suspect they'd build Facebook's advantage. See [Ben Thompson](https://stratechery.com/2018/the-bill-gates-line/ https://stratechery.com/2018/the-bill-gates-line/) for instance on how data portability isn't as beneficial as it might seem.
- jimrhods23 8y agoLarge companies like Facebook love government regulation. They have enough money to pay attorneys to navigate the regulation framework and it keeps out future competitors.
- robertcope 8y agoThis was my first thought, as well. Facebook can handle it. And they'll build a service for the little guys to use. Win, win!
