They’re not gonna roll all the fun out at once. What ever they took out will be put back in eventually.
Remember when Google was all on board with China censorship?
Oh, I’m sure Google stood up for the right of the individual. /s
And how did this SOB Wheeler decide to make some changes in his super, secret takeover of the Internet that pleases Google, when he refuses to go before Congress - hmmmm?
These monsters are carving up our very freedoms, with impunity, and sneering at us while they do it.
This is the government our founders warned us about...no election will ever fix this.
I think Google is behind this.
They have these Mega-Server farms not yet fully on-line with very fast access.
