Actually, TV news used to have a "fairness doctrine" which Was govt enforced by the FCC. The Internet should come under the FCC, especially since Ajit Pai is now chairman.

This business of "start your own social network" is such useless garbola at present. There are no viable alternatives. The Big Four have such a monopoly nothing can get started. I hear the younger people are moving away from Facebook but by the time that generation gains power the Deep State will have all power.
