- lesuorac 4y agoWhy would they stop advertising if one location where they advertised was undesirable? Brand Advertisements would just disappear from the internet and stick to the highly regulated TV slots but Mtn Dew isn't going to layoff its whole advertising team just because X Webpage has Pro-Nazi comments.
- allturtles 4y agoThey would presumably shift advertising dollars to channels that don't constitute 'social media' under this law: TV, ecommerce sites, search, news sites, etc.
- BizarroLand 4y agoAside form that, I can imagine that a completely unmoderated internet would look like the zombie apocalypse where the zombies are fast and smart. If you can't moderate a forum, then you can't ban people for posting animal porn on r/funny or nudes on facebook or youtube or take their posts down. It would be a wild west for trolls, and finding a section of the internet where you could have rational and civil conversations like this would be like finding a cave where as long as you don't make too much noise the zombies won't hear you and come running.
