US pledges to keep an open internet with dozens of other countries

This is typical posturing that only idiots believe. It's easy for us people to stand there and point the finger at obvious censorship and places but somehow we are oblivious to the censorship that we endure here.

The internet is open unless you're Backpage or unless you're mega or unless you say something that we declare against the narrative or unless you search for pressure cookers and backpacks from the same house. Never shop for home goods and back to school supplies on the same day I guess. In those cases we just slap the same kind of evil tag on it and use the government to shut it down.

It's the typical free speech garbage that was pushed when the FCC was enacted to regulate radio broadcasts. The airwaves are open to you as long as you get permission for what you're going to say.
