We stand on the verge of youtube, twitter, facebook, Jow Forums, reddit, and the internet in general ceasing to exist. So unless you want to start banning youtube bullshit and twittercap posts, this is extremely /tv/ relevant.
also who has the monkey's paw and how do I get in line?
>We stand on the verge of youtube, twitter, facebook, Jow Forums, reddit, and the internet in general ceasing to exist Sounds comfy desu

S. Korean "real ID" internet comment laws were repealed by the Constitutional Court of Korea on the grounds that it encroaches on the right to freedom of speech way back in 2012.
>Politicians who want to control internet usage Net Neutrality was literally the government controlling private internet companies This cartoon is stupid
Chase Richardson
No, that was the government saying no one could control the internet.

All the memes surrounding this are wrong in some way because people are afraid to be dismissed as tinfoil

The government is bound by the chains of the constution. NGO's are not. The government has a history of using NGO's to do things it can't. Now the media companies, that lost control of the public mind with the rise of the internet, can put pressure on any internet platform. Reminder that CNN and time/warner are owned by the same corp. as well as comcast and NBC.
People are being misled, this is not a war aganst "liberal" Google, it is a war against the free flow of information. Hate to defend Google, they really do need broken up for the public good, but so do the big 6 media companies that were consolidated under Clinton.
What is this, some faggy version of the singularity that’ll never happen because all the obsolete corporate entities of the planet want to put the brakes on technological advancement?
