Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) are teaming up on legislation to create a new agency that would have the power to regulate tech giants.
The bipartisan Digital Consumer Protection Commission Act, unveiled Thursday, would create an agency charged with oversight of Meta, Google, Amazon and other large tech companies and seek to promote industry competition and consumer privacy online.
The commission would work alongside the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Department of Justice (DOJ), the agencies that currently operate as antitrust enforcers, according to the bill.

When in doubt, create a New Gov’t Agency!
Nothing good will come of this....
Why ,the tech giants are already in the democrat’s pocket
Truly— Warren is a crazy hag and Graham a crazy...f..g.
Use the laws on the books to end the big tech monopoly by breaking them up. We don’t need another agency full of control freaks to rule us.
Lindsey Graham is a deep state %&@!
No no no no no...
Exactly!
We need LESS government manipulation of business, not more.
Nope.
They should regulate this insane AI that’s stealing everything
A new agency that will produce goodness by working with old corrupt and politicized agencies.
Use the FCC for this. Better yet, pound sand. The last thing we need is yet another government agency.
> power to regulate tech giants.
Yes, tech giants like personal blogs and indie news sites.
The Left enlarging the Deep State as we speak.
And you thought only God (or maybe Frankenstein) could create eternal life.
Well since the Deep State agencies ("Deep State" being unconstitutional federal government) are granted eternal life by unconstitutional federal government of the Deep State, we're about to see yet another blood-sucking, America-eroding Deep State agency born into eternal life because these bureaucracies NEVER go away...
...UNLESS OR UNTIL WE THE PEOLE DESTROY THEM ALONG WITH THE REST OF THE UNCONSTITUTIONAL "DEEP STATE" PORTION OF FEDERAL GOVERNMENT!
You are witnessing here exactly how the unconstitutional portion of the federal government Deep State grows - silently and deadly - without as mush as a whimper form the Right who is confused about who their enemy, the Deep State, really is.
“The commission would work alongside the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Department of Justice (DOJ),”
Both are under hard left liar leadership.
Nothing good will come from DC until we clean out the nest.
It is Time to DownSize DC! (big time)
Bipartisanship is why we vote. /s
Never trust an Injun.
Faggots should never hold public office.
Do you really think Fauxcohontas would be involved if Twitter was still banning comments? Not sure what to think of Grahamnesty….
There is an upside to this.
Naturally everyone wants to kneejerk and kill the messenger.
But Warren has had a point here for some time. It’s clear that Social Media Giants are out of control. They suppress information, distort the truth and lie, they gaslight sheeple into believing and following dangerous trends like grooming,the influence elections and so much more. Social Media is an unregulated monster infringing on basic American rights like Free Speech.
Look FReepers. Just because Warren and Graham are pushing this doesn’t automatically mean it must be trashed.
No new Federal agenciies. Is Graham cuckoo?
