The main problem is that government may not be allowed to keep Nazis off the internet so long as what they say is considered free speech, but I envision the use of third-party whitelists and blacklists to make it so that people can use the internet without every having to interact with a Nazi.

Regulating social media is an idea worth exploring, but simply stealing Tik Tok and giving it to Steve Mnuchin is not it.

What do Dems even get out of this? A handful of Nikki Haley voters and some sweet insider trading deals? A bag of magical beans?

i’m not a statist. i think government regulation is way better than government seizing whole companies. and i say that fully aware of examples where government did seize companies that worked, and also where government decided not to seize and regulations failed. there will be case by case arguments about it at least as long as there is democratic discourse.

This. Do we forget that Facebook sold everyone’s data through a uk company? Does tiktok really pose a greater threat than any other social media company?

We need more signs explaining where our money goes. I would name Ben Garrison in charge of labeling public works.
