Two law professors say government "must" control speech on the internet

Three days ago two professors--Jack Goldsmith and Andrew Woods--made a printed statement:

"Significant monitoring and speech control are inevitable components of a mature and flourishing internet, and governments must play a large role in these practices to ensure that the internet is compatible with society's norms and values."

Jack Goldsmith and Andrew are communnist rat-bastard scum-sucking pencil-necks.  They should be hanged in public, on pay-per-view.  Slowly.

Okay, just kidding.  They should be fed feet-first into wood chippers.  Slowly.

Okay, just kidding again.  They should be kicked out of an aircraft at 20,000 feet, so they get a nice long time to think about what rat-bastards they are, and how richly they deserve their rapidly-approaching extinction.

Seriously, these two jerks are the face of tyranny.  "Government must play a large role" in monitoring and controlling speech on the net?  Really?

I've got two words for these assholes.  The second is "you."

Bet they're registered Democrats.  And they hate Trump.  And they think they're SOOooo f'n smart, cuz they're..."academics." 

Yeah.

Writing in the Atlantic on Saturday, two law professors declared that online speech can "never go back to normal" after the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead they claim the United States must follow China's lead and police the internet with an iron fist.

Meanwhile journalism professors blasted out a petition urging TV networks to police President Trump’s COVID-19 press conferences.  The petition stated:

“We ask that all cable channels, broadcast stations, and networks (with the exception of C-SPAN) stop airing these briefings live. Instead, they should first review the briefings and, after editing, present only that information that provides updates from health officials about the progress and ongoing mitigation of the disease.”

Many journalists agreed.

In other words, the chattering class must control discourse because you people are too stupid to think for yourselves.

Goldsmith and Woods again: “Ten years ago speech on the American Internet was a free-for-all … various forms of weaponized speech and misinformation had not yet emerged," but a “wake-up call was Russia’s interference in the 2016 election.” Though "not particularly sophisticated," it exposed the "legal limitations grounded in the First Amendment."

Well there ya go, sparky.
