MODERATORS
Regulate Big Tech and be done with it.
Or make the internet a public resource. Let the USPS be the ISP
The constitution allows for a nationwide communications network that's run at low cost for public good. USPS is absolutely legally allowed to run internet service and it's shame that it hasn't taken this over yet.
And I trust my privacy with the USPS a lot more than I do with AT&T
It would be a fitting legacy for Ben Franklin as well.
