It doesn't matter if we turn the internet into a utility or not. We will still lose control of it.

Whether it’s controlled by corporations or the government…who do you think has your best interest in mind?

That’s right, fucking nobody.

Tumblr can plead all they want to “save the internet”, picking one monster which will control the internet over another monster which will control the internet.

But they’re Tumblr. They only seem like they’re hip. That’s, like, the entire story of Tumblr political views. We’re Tumblr and this is what we believe. Ain’t we hip and cool and MODERN?

Blah, blah, blah.

It’s all bullshit and not even a real crisis because either the government or corporations will control the internet. Whatever. And corporations are even in control of the government.

I can tell you right here and now, in 2015, that the last person to control the internet will be the user. Whoever ends up running the internet, it sure as hell ain’t gonna be you.
