News: Sen. Elizabeth Warren wants to build a new agency to police Big Tech
Sen. Elizabeth Warren has already helped create independent agencies.
The bill, sponsored by Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC), would create a new agency called the Digital Consumer Protection Commission that would be empowered to go after giant tech firms for a slew of anti-competitive behaviors and failing to protect consumer privacy.

While well intentioned, in the hands of the right the agency could what the supreme court is doing now for big tech.
It's either something like this, or you trust big tech corporations to police themselves. Do you have a 3rd option?
I prefer the second.
"Corporate self governance" doesn't exist. Whatever fucks the consumer for more profit is the only rule they follow.
I'd prefer the current state of affairs than the tech industry getting restricted by a budge SCOTUS. It doesn't exist, but it's still better than the other, since the SCOTUS people probably benefit corporate anyways
Yeah, I'm not even sure which option I'm in favor of. It's a shit situation all around.
