And what do you do when someone dumps a truck of garbage on that sidewalk? We already have that sidewalk. Everyone connected to internet has a small sidewalk. Not everyone wants to tread in all neighbourhoods, and some streets are not wide enough to allow half of the world walking them, but they have that sidewalk.
- Causality1 6y agoThey're prosecuted by the law, just like real illegal dumpers. That's my position, that there should be a public internet content distribution platform that operates at-cost services for users and whose only rules are the laws of the United States. An internet utility.
- yetihehe 6y ago> are the laws of the United States You have those already, facebook operates according to US laws. If not, it will be prosecuted. Of course, maybe government mandated ones will be better? Like public television in my country, where it is just a propaganda machine for currently ruling party? You think it will not be "moderated" by ruling party in US when operated as a public government owned utility?
- Causality1 6y agoFacebook has many more rules about what content can and cannot be posted than the law requires. A public utility wouldn't even need a Terms of Service page.
