SV made the choice before (by accepting money from dictatorships for political influence via social media). Attempts at regulation were a reaction to that.
There's no way the situation can stay like that forever. There will be regulation like there's regulation of TV, radio, press, etc.
Without regulation you don't get a libertarian utopia - you just get oligarchy.
- mlinhares 2y agoWait, the libertarian utopia IS oligarchy. So it is all right by their standards.
- ajuc 2y agoThere's orders of magnitude more libertarians than oligarchs. It's even in the name :) Most libertarians aren't rational egoists, they are just naive losers oligarchs take advantage of to get more power.
- mlinhares 2y agoThey still firmly believe they'll be the oligarchs, just like lots of people think if they were in medieval Europe they would be nobles or knights.
