The same senator who supported SOPA / PIPA and then broke down in tears when she got called on it.
> You could have special app store legislation. This isn’t like one way, a monopoly way. We’re going to have to figure out what we can get done.
Making it harder for monopoly-mergers to be approved in the future is a good first step but it won't do anything to address the existing inequities in tech. Passing deliberately vague regulations and putting some unelected bureaucrats in charge of enforcement will only favor existing tech incumbents, like everything the FCC and Copyright Office has done so far.
The DoJ already has the tools to break up monopolies but our senators are deliberately tiptoeing around that.
