I don't identify as conservative, but this stood out: "They are not simply prevailing in the free market; they are taking advantage of a landscape that has been skewedโby the governmentโto favor their business models over [competitors']. Crony capitalism is not free enterprise."
Interesting that this plan is the "conservative path forward," but really everyone wants some form of "user empowerment." AOC & Warren have been pushing to break up big tech to protect small businesses. Now Trump & conservatives want similarly but from a lens of "free speech."
IMO it seems like a political move to turn this whole free speech/censorship argument into a movement for checking the power of big tech to protect small businesses. They seem somewhat unrelated. Maybe before the hearings, the administration wants to get the left on board.

Hard to think about: I don't like that the administration can spread disinformation/say BS, but I also don't like private entities controlling what I read or say.
