They're doing it at the wrong layer. Make the internet a common carrier and maybe regulate AWS (etc) to ensure everyone can host their own websites somewhere.

How can social media be a common carrier when it cannot be accessed through a common carrier?
It feels like we're fighting to have our one sentence displayed among the ads, while giving up the ability to create our own webpages and platforms.

- andrew_ 4y agoThat's a great angle, hasn't thought about it like that. I'm not sure it solves the "stack" problem that alternatives would face. Would that go so far as to regulate payment processors that are accepting and handling payments via internet?
