Regulation isnt a black and white/good or bad thing. It can be either.
- scarface74 6y agoThink about a regulation being passed that says if you allow user generated content, you must have a system in place to prevent copyright infringement. Would a startup be able to design such a system? It would give FB and Google an advantage.
- erinnh 6y agoI already said that its not black and white? I dont know why youre trying to argue as if Im saying all regulation is perfect? But acting as if all regulation is terrible and we should let the massive corporations simply walk over us is also not realistic.
- scarface74 6y agoDo you trust the government to know the difference? The US House just had a dog and pony show with the tech CEOs where one representative asked Zuckerburg about Twitter’s content policy.
