In fairness, most internet users would have been extremely against regulating social media until quite recently
it's all about how the regulations are designed... for the benefit of corporations? or regular people?
for example, there could easily be rules placing caps on the amount of advertising that's allowed on any given platform. no fucking way now the government will ever put that cat back in the bag now that the 20 percent of GDP comes from tech monopolies fueled by advertisements.
Early internet was very much regulated. I wish we could all just go back to usenet and no internet on phones.
it was only regulated by its uselessness.. it was the wild west of shit otherwise.
Regulated by my uselessness...
