He's right that the Web belongs to no one, but the politicians of the world, for the most part, clearly still don't agree nor believe that.
It's too big of a single target to not constantly be the object of power grabs. So much of what we do, say, and transact now flows over the Internet or Web. The politicians will literally never stop pursuing legislation for controlling information systems of all sorts. If they have to do it at the edges first, then they will, that's how they always make power grabs when big grabs fail.
Eternal vigilance is the price to be paid to keep the Web free.
