@ADigitalArtist, or anyone else, do you think there's such thing as a "big internet" lobby group in the making? Because there are literally billions of dollars being made with the internet, and like with any big money medium, like big oil, big pharma, NRA, there always seems to be a group that tries to get involved in law and politics.
Isn't the thought of a Big Internet getting involved in and influencing politics kind of frightening though? Especially considering all the data mining on people (which Zuckerberg has already been to court over) and the fact that they actively punish people, and control speech to a degree?
...I wonder if such a thing exists yet --
Big Internet.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg began a two-day congressional inquisition Tuesday with a public apology for a privacy scandal that has roiled the social media giant he founded more than a decade ago.
Zuckerberg opened his remarks before the Senate Commerce and Judiciary committees by taking responsibility for failing to prevent Cambridge Analytica, a data-mining firm affiliated with Donald Trump's presidential campaign, from gathering personal information from 87 million users to try to influence elections.
...So with the above, you can see how firms, corporations and businesses all working interdependently, are moving toward totalitarian control through networking... Not much different from China's "Social Credit System".
