"Potential Policy Proposals for Regulation of Social Media and Technology Firms,"

They want our speech, our guns, and now our internet.

All because the Dems colluded with Russia and China one too many times! Thanks Hillary!

Thankful Republicans will never go along with this.

Technically, it was 'their' internet before they decided to make it available to us.

No. But they want to limit what we seek by labeling something somebody thinks or says into a category. Then ban said category.

History repeating itself here in America.
I think they want all speech regulated. This is where they are starting. Not where it ends

They have their own intranet.
There was another internet made for the public
I think they swallowed that one too. I remember one off the founding programmers speaking of it on one of those techie shows. Anyway. As you see we only have 1 internet to use.

Plus it's too global, so no one country controls the speech, except within their own boundaries (think EU, North Korea, Iran and China as examples).

Even in first world nations like France and Germany, a lot of the US political content on YouTube is banned in those countries, and only accessible by way of a VPN (virtual private network), but the average computer user doesn't know the first thing what a VPN is, or how it's used. So they're "walled off" from a lot of what the German and French authorities deem as "controversial".

Way too many people are naive about what the Internet is and how it was created.

Here is the definition of Internet that was created by the Federal Networking Council:

"Internet refers to the global information system that — (i) is logically linked together by a globally unique address space based on the Internet Protocol (IP) or its subsequent extensions/follow-ons; (ii) is able to support communications using the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) suite or its subsequent extensions/follow-ons, and/or other IP-compatible protocols; and (iii) provides, uses or makes accessible, either publicly or privately, high level services layered on the communications and related infrastructure described herein."

I believe the midterms coming.
To stifle anything he has to say.
He must ring their bells.

He would not be worth removing or fooling with if he was the fringe idiot they say he is.
But he nailed them a few good ones during the campaigns. Dems are seeking revenge on every platform, education: students made to perform resistance tasks.
Its an all out assault. Protesters allowed to conceal themselves. That has to stop right now.
I do like Paul Joseph Watson. They are censoring him too.

he was kicked off for violating site policies,just like THIS site would kick you off of it if you started spouting hate filled,homophobic,anti semetic,antisocial crap on here.

I actually applaud those sites for not wanting to be associated with the type of stuff alex jones is known for,and refusing to allow him to continue to use their site as a platform to spread it from!

I just think that they should have put a stop to it A LONG TIME AGO!!!

was it censorship??

yes,it was,but it is not GOVERNMENT censorship!!
THAT is just one of the privileges of owning your own website..

YOU get to decide what you want to allow on it,and if somebody puts something you don't like on YOUR website,then you have the right to remove it,and keep it from happening again!

but,if alex jones wants to start HIS OWN website,as long as what he puts on it doesn't violate any laws,then he is free to post whatever type of crap he wants to on it,no matter hHOW OFFENSIVE some people might find it!

I think that the KKK even has its own website,and the government allows it to stay up,so...

[BUT,try to start a website with child pornography on it,and see how fast it gets shut down,and the people who allowed it to be posted gets put in jail.]

the concept is not exactly rocket science!!
