They aren't even regulating social media. They were protecting social media by regulating US and our ability to seek legal recourse against heavy handed censorship. All Trump did was remove the regulations imposed on the rest of us.

These big companies are so far from being a platform that I don't believe they have a clue how to get back to that.

Exactly right. These companies defrauded the public with a classic bait-and-switch scam.
They built their empires by trading the illusion of freedom of speech, and expression to prospective customers, and content creators, to lure customers. Then, after millions of people invested their time, content, and built (difficult to migrate) social networks into those platforms, they pulled the rug out from under them with censorship, and sudden, drastic changes of service terms.
Their empires were built on fraud, and need to be burned to the ground.

I remember when GOOG was just starting and later on the stock market. So big difference. For example in 10K report in risks it was mentioned because GOOG doesn’t own the content of the web sites and it is very risky to mirror them on their servers in order to be indexed very fast. It was mentioned a lawsuits can follow exactly because of that fact. It is still a big risk for them.

I hope they all get exposed as the deep state government agents that they are.
