Is it time for an expanded digital services tax? Why not tax foreign social media like we tax sugar, alcohol, nicotine, and fast food? The imposition of minimum pricing rules per account or per post would be a huge disincentive. Maybe regulate them like traditional media. Ban foreign ownership?

Oh, I see. I hadn't considered that that could be used as a pretense for military action.

Trump's stable genius trade advisor was just on one of their propaganda networks suggesting that Canada is also run by Mexican cartels. It's all a bit Monty Python, honestly. Just waiting to hear who he's nominating for Secretary of Silly Walks.

After some quick interneting, apparently we have the technical and industrial capacity to do so, but lack intention, having committed to peaceful, civilian use of the technology through non-proliferation treaties, etc.

I mean, in an ideal world, that's how it should be.

I think it very much is for certain states. Particularly Florida.
