This is fascism coming into America the alt right and GOP know that with a free and clear access to the internet that we are able to stop thier fascist agenda and can call out their bullshit.
We must stop these bills from moving forward.
Agreed that the threat to free and clear access to the internet increases the chances of fascism coming to America. But there are plenty of Democrats who support these bills -- they all have bipartisan sponsorship. And more positively, he Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act -- a good privacy bill -- also has bipartisan sponsorship. So this is one of the rare issues that still cuts across party lines.
This is why I don't trust Democrats.
They make a good show of being angry as they let Republicans take the blame for the bills that they all benefit from.
Congress has been trying to destroy the Internet for almost as long as the Internet has been publicly available. No matter how many times it fails and the Internet survives, it always comes back and tries again, over and over, forever. I fear it's only a matter of time before it succeeds.
And make no mistake, a law against end-to-end encryption will make cybersecurity in general illegal, leaving every online operation wide open to attack by cybercriminals. Such a law won't merely take away your privacy; it'll take away the Internet altogether.
They finally successfully killed net neutrality under Ajit Pai (motherfucker). They've been incrementally changing things up since then so that people don't notice and complain.

Lol, bet. Let's try it then, and see how far we can go.
That's pretty much how I look at it to. It might work, it might not ... but you can't win if you don't play!
