CONSTITUTION IN CRISIS

HOW TO BREAK UP BIG TECH – AND SOON

Exclusive: Craige McMillan envisions free speech returning to internet by fall

It’s time for the corporate cupcakes over at Google, YouTube, Facebook and the rest of Big Tech to bake some cupcakes for America.

If Christian bakers can be fined out of existence for refusing to bake homosexual wedding cakes, then so can Big Tech. It’s high time they were, because they are implementing a worldwide political agenda that bans free speech by groups they don’t want to have an audience.

The Constitution spells out what the government can’t do. 

How convenient that big corporations, being paid by the government to spy on us, can also limit our First Amendment free speech to liberal PC regurgitations. 

I see how that works for our elected “servants” – 

I just don’t see how it works for us. 

They get political contributions for toeing the Big Tech line. 

We get silenced.

If you want to function as a monopoly, then you serve everybody. Equally. 

Unlike homosexuals, who can walk down the street and buy a cake at the next bakery, few of us can speak our piece on timely topics, without losing 90 percent of our audience, when Big Tech TOSes us out of existence (via Terms of Service).

Big Tech wants it both ways. 

They want the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) copyright exception that excludes them for responsibility for infringement, because they don’t exercise control over what is posted on their services – 

as long as it’s not conservative, Christian or constitutional, or makes good sense.

Once Big Tech exercises control over content, however, they become liable for copyright infringement 

(distributing copyrighted material without a licensing agreement). 

Big Tech was built on copyright infringement. 

DMCA allowed Big Tech to blame their users, who were usually too small to pursue for monetary damages. Remember when Google decided they would just digitize the world’s books, unless authors said no? Nice idea, if you’re going to sell them and reimburse authors and publishers. Copyright infringement if you don’t. They’ve since moved onto musicians.

So what’s to be done? Break them up. 

Set the internet monopoly threshold at 10 to 15 percent of the market. Once a firm reaches that, they are forced to incorporate the Constitution’s Bill of Rights into their Terms of Service.

Since algorithms control the online world, those rules need to be posted online, well in advance of implementation. That way, we will have oversight of how traffic is ranked, when it is filtered by political, religious, or other automated efforts. Advertisers would benefit as well, by knowing how their ads are ranked.

The open source software model is a good one. 

Lots of expert programmers can look at the source code for these programs. The likelihood of finding malicious code is very high.

This needs to happen – and it could – before the upcoming election campaigns kick in. 

Wouldn’t that be interesting? 

A level playing field for all. 

Free speech on the internet. What a concept!

My comment: If this does not happen the results will be Disastrous for America. If it does not happen, the LEFT will rule America by Default.
