Trump and GOP have been trying to stack deck against fairness and democracy here ever since you lot voted him in.
He has already been stuffing the judiciary with his cronies.
He is 'fixing' the us census to bias the next election
Now for the media!
Now for example he can get ISPS to give him the names of those critical to him and sue them or put pressure on the likes of google to remove shows like "The young Turks" etc. from you tube.
Want access to the 'Failing New York Times' or the BBC or any liberal media?
Sorry, not allowed in this state or prohibitively expensive
All hail the beloved Trump great leader and dictator for life!
The internet will just be in the end just like cable tv.
IT is the job of government to protect its citizens against rapacious big business.
Yes, ALL Tech companies are trying to get to the complete walled garden approach where you will only be able to run very limited apps from the App Store only. Next version of gatekeeper to enforce and they will probably stop us from booting from any other drive with pre Has already done this with Windows 10S
The goal is to essentially turn the Mac from a powerful general purpose computer into a mere appliance like the IPad is.
This is all down to Apple and Steve Jobs in the first place with the original App Store.
This is great for Apple in the short term.
However, if they create such a sterile and barren landscape by discouraging all the power users 'geeks' etc then innovation will be massively stifled which will harm everyone.
It goes without saying that sandboxed "apps" will be less powerful than a program wihich can access the whole power of the machine.
