'Reports say White House has drafted an order putting the FCC in charge
of monitoring social media
The White House is contemplating issuing an executive order that would
widen its attack on the operations of social media companies.
The White House has prepared an executive order called “Protecting
Americans From Online Censorship” that would give the Federal
Communications Commission oversight of how Facebook, Twitter and other
tech companies monitor and manage their social networks, according to a
CNN report.
Under the order, which has not yet been announced and could be revised,
the FCC would be tasked with developing new regulations that would
determine when and how social media companies filter posts, videos, or
articles on their platforms.
The draft order also calls for the Federal Trade Commission to take
those new policies into account when investigating or filing lawsuits
against technology companies, according to the CNN report.'

So let's be clear:
Unlimited political contributions from big business and the uber-rich:
Great!
Companies choosing what is acceptable for themselves to publish:
Bad!
