The problem with news agencies in current days is that they are being influenced by different powers.
So like you said, news = propagands. Luckily we have youtube influencers and more content builders. This surely will help to some degree.
"I still think something similar to the 90's general "hands off" moratorium"
Could you tell me more about it? Im not sure what are you refereing to.
Very true on the battling "powers" behind the propaganda.
On the other question, they basically said to the world they were going to leave the internet tax free under the Clinton years, which I believe was a key to the way the global economy really grew in those years and played a big factor in the build out of the internet. Then Bush came along, 911 and so much began to change very dramatically around the world, which had a negative influence in so many ways ever since. I'll have to dig in to get more specifics for any post I may make on this subject.
Oh I never knew that internet tax was free back in the days. Seriously? Damn.
Now with Trumph there will be even more dramatic changes :/
Yeah, I know what you mean on Trump, which almost seems to be some sort of mysterious Trump card for the world D-elite... ;) The question is: is he there to shake things up or shake things down... Hahaha The latter seems to be the role for this week with his shot herd round the world on a new US-China Trade war.
Have a great weekend!
