White House unveils principles for Big Tech reform

Maybe I'm cynical, but I see "increase competition," but then see "put stronger safeguards in place" and assume that the regulations will be written in such a way that no upstart competitors can possibly abide by them, concentrating even more power in the hands of the incumbents and reducing competition.

What's interesting about this to me is that there's no mention of pornography. In an earlier era porn would have been an issue of highest priority, but I guess the world has accepted that people can view porn without harm. Even the "Protect our kids" section doesn't mention porn.

&gt;misinformation and disinformation<p>Nobody has spread more misinformation and disinformation than the government and the intelligence agencies. They are the last people on earth who should be trusted to &quot;regulate&quot; the speech of others, much less determine what qualifies as &quot;misinformation and disinformation&quot;.

I&#x27;ll believe it when I see it. This same administration has been secretly emailing Big Tech to censor people like Alex Berenson so I don&#x27;t buy that they want moderation transparency and reform.

That&#x27;s a pretty good summary and a pretty good broad plan for dealing with it.
