> ItÃ(TM)s very simple. If you hold tech companies legally responsible for the content their users produce, they will *shut down* the ability

Why do you think Big Tech would /evaluate/ that legal liability for user content would be their recommendation?

I mean, that would force decentralized social media eventually but I can't see Big Tech's evaluation being that a loss of their business
would be the best course.

```
It would require Big Tech companies to work with Congress for 18 months to "evaluate and enact a new legal framework that will allow for free speech and innovation while also encouraging these companies to be good stewards of their platforms"

Hey, we put up with AI-generated climate alarmism propaganda articles here like every other day. Rarely are they coherent, even.

Just skip the nonsense.

True story: I was looking for an old MH370 article and my GoogleFu was failing on all the major search engines. I decided to try Yandex (type, hit the yellow thing) and the first six results were exact hits for the article and boards discussing the pros and cons of it.

Just like Google would provide a decade ago.

InQTel, baby!

Any product that "indiscriminately facilitates anonymous transactions," wrote the US Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control, represents a "threat to US national security."

They know they're describing cash - US Dollar notes, right? Or any fungible/privacy-preserving current money.

Of course they do. The Programmable Surveillable Money (PSM) specter looms darkly.

No wonder Trump just got $100M in crypto donations. Not everybody wants their entire life in Genocide Joe's database (especially not the MIC which can't find $3T taxpayer dollars).

Of course this means North Korea will offer these services directly for 10%.
