This is the kind of thing that makes me bonkers

 From the Washington Post:

Trump's TikTok order sparks questions about future of online expression

American tech companies compete bitterly with TikTok, but observers are watching to see if they will throw their powerful legal and policy resources behind the company in opposition to the Trump administration's heavy-handed approach to Internet regulation. [Emphasis mine.]

 Does this mean light-handed regulation would be OK, and what would light-handed regulation look like, anyway? Or does it mean somebody else's heavy-handed regulation would be fine, just not Trump's?

Or is it, you know, freaking nonsense? Me, I'm guessing that.

For the record, this fuss about TikTok is multi-faceted and the resolution is difficult at best. My default position favors an unrestricted, open Internet—but I gotta tell you, that's dangerous. So hold on tight.
