Let your Congress-critters know this is not the right thing to do.

    At what point do we say “Screw it”, let Congress pass all the bills to wreck the internet, and then build a better one?

      Unless you intend to move out of their jurisdiction, the law will probably remain the same for your New Internet too.

      Congress is going to say “Screw it” and pass what they want anyway.

        If by “pass what they want” you mean “continue doing nothing” then I’m in agreement.

      How exactly does one build a “better one” that doesn’t automatically get included in the coverage of bills like this?

          How does I2P work? Is it some peer to peer network on IP or something?

          I’m making a decentralized sharing protocol, that could be a test-bed for “a new internet”. Not really battle hardened but works, tell me if you’re interested!

      Long past time to do it. It’s not even congress but the market share of the internet has been centralizing around the handful of FAANG or whatever acronym. Unfortunately too much of the tech nerd population have been seduced by the dark side. A reconstructed world wide web would be very hard to gain enough traction without enough nerds backing it.
