I'm not entirely sure how one could create a internet of interconnected computers and servers without links to one another and the webpages they serve.
Short of maybe making one "central hub" controlled by one state/entity. Though this would probably not turn out great.
I think public search engines is a good idea though it would be multiple states
I suppose it’s because I’m old so I don’t like how centralized and profit driven the internet has become but I see nothing wrong with profit sharing with websites on pages where their link is used
I see the law as a step not the end and would rather further the reaches of the legislation than repeal it
As per blocking referrals I feel the issue is more the title and blurb stops people from clicking through as is. Hence the legislation
If Facebook wasn’t allowed to show more than just a link then they would react in a similar manner
Lemmy has a similar issue of people only reading the title or what the person said about a link
Can they prevent people from posting text with their links?
I’m glad you see the need for new regulations
aha the internet as you know it was not born in 1983 unless you are mostly interacting on lemmy with email and ftp
Lemmy was never known as Usenet.
I guess you're just too smart for people to understand.
