Forcing us to get consent before selling browser histories violates our free speech, US ISPs claim

WTF?

Stop the Press

OK, I think I just found the problem with America and American law. Companies can claim the rights granted to citizens in the constitution!!!!

Funnily enough it seems to be hard to send a company to jail if it breaks the law, so they are citizens with the rights of citizens, but none of the responsibilities! Ever seen a company perform jury duty, after all?

And I know some wag is going to say, well companies cant vote, but with the money they pay in "donations" to the politicial parties, they get the laws they want anyway. Who needs to vote, when you already control the parliament? (see everything the FTC has done since Pai took charge).

Companies claiming free speech protection! God i'm glad i live in a (at least for the moment) semi-sane country...
