Newsflash! Google already decides what you have access to, with every single search.
I’m not sure Google not being treated as a utility severing the general public is a good plan.
We clearly don’t see eye to on on this.
I do not think that people have thought through the consequences of this stance.
I don’t know of any Lizards who did this but when the MPAA/RIAA wanted the same thing from Google and other providers (using the same justifications as earlier in the thread: Illegal activities backed by international law) many people reacted negatively to the idea.
Either way I started with “this is a when did you stop beating your wife trap” and what do I get? #411. It’s the classic “You disagree with how a problem is being addressed therefore you are pro-problem” otherwise known as ‘you are either with us or against us’.
