[No] Introducing the Internet Bill of Rights

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/04/opinion/ro-khanna-internet-bill-of-rights.html

     In an interview with me this week, Nancy Pelosi even suggested
   that a new agency could be created to manage tech's growing
   impact. "Something needs to be done," she told me, to "protect
   the privacy of the American people" and "come up with
   overarching values" -- a set of principles that everyone can
   agree on and adhere to.  Call it a Bill of Rights for the
   internet.

One thing that's guaranteed worse than these companies regulating
themselves is their being regulated by self-serving politicians of ANY
party. As the saying goes, the road to Internet Hell is paved with
good intentions. Just say no.
