As usual people ask for more regulations, but when you do regulations corporations always find a way around and become stronger. They become stronger because the small guy doesn't have the money, the energy and the lawyers to abide to every stupid regulation thrown at him. It surprises me that it's the founder of tpb to call for more regulations, since he made a website that survived this long thanks to a lack of regulations. Also it's false that today there is nothing outside of fb, google, etc There are a lot of websites and services one can use and support so that they can improve. There are a lot of cool communities outside those blessed by big corps. But I can see how the billions of internet noobs that do stupid stuff on fb or google get a lot of attentions. But they truly are noobs. The only problem with fb, google, etc is that, as all corporations do, they will eventually lobby the government to pass regulations so that they can have an easier life against competition, and they are smart enough to do it so that you can't see it coming. They won't say "google must rule", no, they will push for ten new law every day, until there are thousands of laws and only well-payed lawyer can abide them. This is how it's always worked in all industries, in all countries. It's like a circle of economic self-destruction. The only rule that the internet need is a rule to define what the internet is, and that rule is embedded in the concept of Net Neutrality. Because of course if I buy "the internet" I want the damn internet, not cable tv 2.0. And all the extra rules, those about freedom of speech, etc should be about how there shall be a lack of rules, not more rules. If you ask for more rules you first get stupid stuff like the EU cookie law, and then really bad stuff that makes life difficult for the little guy, but not the big guy. When you ask for regulations from the government you pave the road for the CORPORATIONS because they have the lawyer, the money, the energy that the little guy does not have. If you hate google and fb so much block them, for now it is possible to do it. In almost all industries there are a lot of regulations. And most of this regulations are in the end against the little guy, and favor the big guy. Maybe one day there will be a lot of regulations for the internet, but none of them will help the freedom of normal people, but just make corporations stronger. And then you really won't be able to block fb, google, youtube, etc
