    “Our” firewall: fucked, if ever implemented. probably won’t ever be.

    “Great Firewall of China”: massively fucked, already implemented.

    Yours is a false equivalence. The only people suggesting it’s “good and just” are the MPA and other copyright trolls.

      Pathetic, deleting comments critical of your moderation.

      I can’t think of something more on-topic in a thread about American industry lobbying than a study by Princeton, published in a reputable journal, specifically on the topic of lobbying of the American government by industry.

      “Unruffled” indeed.

      Whole lot of people on board with banning Tiktok, though.

      Love to live in a thriving democracy where what the average citizen wants is prioritized by the government instead of what corporations want. This will pass. The only constituency of the American government is capital.

        This post explaining why the Motion Picture Association and Congress will work together to start blocking piracy sites in the US had no business being in a thread about how the Motion Picture Association and Congress will work together to start blocking piracy sites.
