Should Facebook be Regulated?
Please let me know your thoughts
 |
Friends,
No frills or thrills today, just a very simple question I’d appreciate getting your insight on.
Are you for government regulation over Big Tech platforms and sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Google?
Yes or no?
Let me know your answer in the comments with a brief explanation as to why, and we’ll probably discuss this on the next episode of the show.
Thank you so much.
Your humble servant,
Ben Stein

I think there need to be penalties for infringement on free speech. but don't want the Gov regulating the social media I use, and they will expand to others if they start with those.
No. The big 3 (or 4) automakers went to Congress years ago demanding regulation of the auto industry. Congress replied "Sure, we love control, but we don't know anything about making cars." So the Big 3 said, "Well, it will be inconvenient for us, but I guess we can help set up the board." So we now have auto regulations that destroyed the "Tucker" (a brilliant start up that threatened the Big 3's oligopoly), and made sure Elon Musk couldn't open store front dealerships. I.e. it benefits the Big 3...and crushes any competition. The same will happen when Zuckerberg and his cronies form a board to regulate the free speech of social platforms. They will win. Parlor, Rumble, Bitchute, and others will be crushed by the new "important and protective" regulations they dream up. BTW: Throughout history, those who regulated free speech have never turned out to be the good guys.
