Charge a million dollars per minute in fines if a service is essential (e.g. Google, Gmail, Facebook, etc.) and goes down.
That will fix the issues.
While we are at it, some law that forces companies to give service to everyone (no bans) and extends free speech to privately owned websites (no censorship) is also sorely needed.
Right now the level of unpunished abuse of power by service operators whose service has become a de-facto monopoly is immense.
- icebraining 14y agoNo bans? That'd be fun to see. What service do you run, so I can spam it with impunity? And yeah, let's fine these service. It's not like poorer people need email anyway, so why not massively increase their costs?
- uribs 14y agoHopefully they'd be able to keep the service up for less cost than advertising revenues. If not, the fine is too high.
