    Trump’s pick to lead the FCC, Brendan Carr, wants Big Tech to start contributing to federal funds.

    So they should pay taxes? Agreed.

    and to be compelled not to censor content.

    Oh fuck off.

      I think we all know that means removing any safeguards against misinformation.
      They’re absolutely going to ramp up censorship of anything anti-Trump.
      They’re going to promote “free speech” the same way Leon Musk does on Twitter.

        Nah, this will be much worse as you know they will still be censoring the stuff conservatives don’t like. They want free speech for hate and discrimination, like how Musk is handling twitter.
