Re: Popcorn time!

It's one thing to swing the ban-hammer at Facebook... Google is another level. Waiting to see how this shakes out.

One thing that might happen is that legislators see an easy way to ban social media apps; they could compel Apple and Google to revocke the app certificates. That’s a lot cheaper than national firewalls.

So that doesn’t work on PCs but it’s a pretty good step along the path to eradication.
