Hard pass. Nobody wants more government involvement. Not to mention the unspeakable amount of waste and chaos this would entail.

  If regulation is to be attempted, we gotta do it right. Can't leave loopholes around to make things cheaper for them and worse for everybody else. They should have literally no choice but the right one. Waste and chaos don't matter. Do things right or give up. Letting them keep IPv4 resulted in them dragging their ass, implementing NAT everywhere and killing end-to-end conectivity on the internet, repurposing IPv4 as a reputation system, god knows what else. We gotta get rid of it.

    Good regulation is really, really hard. Who do you trust enough to even attempt it? Waste and chaos matter. Or how is your pandemic going?

      If anything, this pandemic proves just how unprepared the world is for such events despite historical knowledge of pandemics. The right thing to do is to devote resources towards preparation for a future pandemic. This is going to cost a lot of money. They won't want to do it.
