Also from the UK Conservative manifesto, they want to regulate social media and have a tax on it so that they can fund propaganda efforts.
"Some people say that it is not for government to regulate when it comes to technology and the internet. We disagree."
I don't expect this is going to go down well either.
"we will establish a regulatory framework in law to underpin our digital charter and to ensure that digital companies, social media platforms and content providers abide by these principles. We will introduce a sanctions regime to ensure compliance"
These folks LOVE sanctioning people. They really get off on it.
"We will also create a power in law for government to introduce an industry-wide levy from social media companies"
