@JameelJaffer @conjurial Also a difference between general regulation of scarce resources like bandwidth and statutorily strong-arming an already-successful app.
@JameelJaffer Lamont is important but I don't think it should be pushed too far. There's a big difference between banning specific pieces of foreign propaganda and banning foreign control over a broad communications platform, which has been the norm in U.S. history.
