Speaker 1: Oh yeah, sosay. You know. Oh man, y'all listen, I'm
Speaker 1: opening up this Okay, So today is man. I'm just
Speaker 1: I'm just so happy right now. I'm recording this on
Speaker 1: March third. This is officially Daylight Soul Day. Now. I
Speaker 1: know this is probably three weeks ahead of y'all, man,
Speaker 1: but listen, it's a long story around this thing, but
Speaker 1: it's just very important that I start this whole thing
Speaker 1: about Listen, we gotta honor Dave Plug two Daylight Soul.
Speaker 1: I know, like I said, I've learned that I'm introducing
Speaker 1: a lot of y'all to these classics. M of course
Speaker 1: it's a good number of you who already know this stuff.
Speaker 1: But do you know the song? Me myself and I.
Speaker 1: It's just me myself and I do. Oh hey, you
Speaker 1: know you got that, you got break it done, you
Speaker 1: got I mean, just so many classics, so many classics.
Speaker 1: Backstory is they've been in this long legal battle with
Speaker 1: Tommy Boy, who wouldn't give up their masters, and just
Speaker 1: a really long, terrible, like nightmare scenario for the music industry,
Speaker 1: especially for some leaders like day Lot, who ain't never
Speaker 1: hurt nobody. I don't know nobody that don't love Daylight
Speaker 1: even listen. I got a lot of friends. I got
Speaker 1: a chance to do about three four shows with them.
Speaker 1: I'm like, these are the greatest humans who've made the
Speaker 1: y'all who and YO genre. I don't know, y'all weirdos
Speaker 1: in the best way. I don't know what music y'all in?
Speaker 1: How could who could I compare this to their royalty?
Speaker 1: These three men created a whole sound my buddy, dude, mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I mean, I say what Just anyway,
Speaker 1: today their music finally hit streaming platforms, but it was
Speaker 1: a month after one of them actually passed away and
Speaker 1: all of hip hop really more or the loss of
Speaker 1: Plug two. So today it has just officially Daylight day.
Speaker 1: So we've been streaming. If you follow me on any
Speaker 1: of my social media, you know I've been talking about
Speaker 1: Daylight all day. Matter of fact, look on terraform, cobrew
Speaker 1: dot com. Look, I'm gonna put a I'm gonna put
Speaker 1: a promo code Daylight on there. When this come out,
Speaker 1: tweet direct DM me y'all blasting some Daylight soul, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get y'all a promo code. You feel me,
Speaker 1: y'all With it. Listen, man, God, that's one of the
Speaker 1: beats that I'm singing all wrong. But anyway, man, you know,
Speaker 1: the stakes is high. I say start with that. Steaks
Speaker 1: is High is the album that changed my life. You know,
Speaker 1: some people started with Daylight Soul is Dead. I was
Speaker 1: too young for three feet High and Rising, but Daylight
Speaker 1: Soul is Dead changed me. The grind Date has the
Speaker 1: song with MF. Doom also rest in pieces. So weird
Speaker 1: hearing this song knowing that they both passed away. Anyway,
Speaker 1: this is part two of I Ain't gonna hold you man,
Speaker 1: I can't call it. We're gonna talk about what might
Speaker 1: possibly be the call that the Supreme Court makes over
Speaker 1: what to do with the Internet? Hook politics, y'all. You
Speaker 1: know Rocket to the break done, Break could done? One
Speaker 1: two one two, Break could done? Yo. Actually, you know
Speaker 1: what this actually does kind of fit into the topic
Speaker 1: we're talking about, how like we still ain't figured out
Speaker 1: how to do the Internet because they listen, you take
Speaker 1: these og artists right who signed their deals pre streaming,
Speaker 1: right that have deals that say, you know, if you
Speaker 1: sell a certain amount, you get a certain percentage and
Speaker 1: then of their record sales. Right, But that was pre streaming.
Speaker 1: So a lot of labels went back and said, well,
Speaker 1: your deal was for physical, you know, distribution. So when
Speaker 1: they upload these albums to streaming, they're like, we really
Speaker 1: don't owe you anything because streaming didn't exist. So since
Speaker 1: it wasn't marked inside of their deals. A lot of
Speaker 1: og artists like again who were who had deals that
Speaker 1: were they were they're called terrestrial distribution, which basically means
Speaker 1: it's physical right, they don't get no percentage or royalties
Speaker 1: off their streams because streams didn't exist. But you know
Speaker 1: that shady because streams still transfer as record sales. They
Speaker 1: still own those are oh my masters, Like those are
Speaker 1: still those artists masters. And if you're telling me that
Speaker 1: certain amount of streams equals a certain amount of record
Speaker 1: sales and their deal was for record sales, then you
Speaker 1: owe these artists millions and millions of dollars. And my
Speaker 1: point is we still don't know how to do the Internet,
Speaker 1: which leads us to what we've been to talk about
Speaker 1: right now. Okay, so last week I talked about YouTube
Speaker 1: being sued by the families of people who passed away
Speaker 1: in a terrorist attack in France. They're suing YouTube for
Speaker 1: aiding and abetting in radicalizing the people who carried out
Speaker 1: this terrorist terrorist attack in France. We talked about last week,
Speaker 1: like the laws that were set up to govern the Internet.
Speaker 1: I mean they were set in ninety six in the
Speaker 1: same way that music. You know, before we had streaming,
Speaker 1: your deals looked a certain way. And then think about
Speaker 1: it like this, After streaming you had the advent of
Speaker 1: like the TikTok hit. You know, before streaming you had
Speaker 1: like the ringtone songs. You know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 1: you had to redo all your deals because technology was
Speaker 1: moving faster than the law. You have to remember, the
Speaker 1: American government is not designed to be nimble. It's not
Speaker 1: designed to move as fast as culture and as technology designed.
Speaker 1: It's all purpose designed to be slow, which is crazy
Speaker 1: if you think about it, because nothing else in our
Speaker 1: culture is designed to be slow, unless we talk about
Speaker 1: that barbecue, that slow cook, that drive, unless we talk
Speaker 1: about make it live, feel like making love. I'm sorry, y'all,
Speaker 1: I'm in such a good mood because I'm listening to daylight,
Speaker 1: so I've been listening in daylight all day. I apologize.
Speaker 1: I see y'all, goofy right now. Anyway, y'all really getting
Speaker 1: a glimpse into my personality right now. Anyway, some stuff
Speaker 1: is just so hard to express, Like you know, you
Speaker 1: hate being like yo, you had to be there, but
Speaker 1: low key you kind of if man, if you just
Speaker 1: understood what was going on in culture and why, like
Speaker 1: the staying power of somebody like a Daylight Soul who's
Speaker 1: like transcended multiple generations of hip hop, Like they go
Speaker 1: so far back and so far forward, and they've been
Speaker 1: able to maintain such a relevancy and just how horrible
Speaker 1: their label treated them for so long, and to finally
Speaker 1: get a victory right when one of them passed was
Speaker 1: just it's just such a story anyway. So the Internet
Speaker 1: was based on laws that was set in ninety six
Speaker 1: that was like you can't sue the utility company for
Speaker 1: the appliance you plug in, you know, you have to
Speaker 1: go to the content creator. Right, So some people believed
Speaker 1: it was because we want to see this internet flourish,
Speaker 1: we want to see it grow. Like again, our laws,
Speaker 1: our government, they are just people. Institutions are made up
Speaker 1: of persons who have a desire to see certain things
Speaker 1: grow or shrink. You know. Sometimes they like to believe
Speaker 1: it's for altruistic reasons, you know, or sometimes it's nefarious.
Speaker 1: Sometimes we just disagree. But the point is the Internet
Speaker 1: was so new you couldn't imagine it, like how do
Speaker 1: you get like you there was no way for them
Speaker 1: to know this is where the internet was going. Like
Speaker 1: we said last week, nobody even thought you could sell
Speaker 1: things on the internet. And I don't know what else
Speaker 1: we do on the internet besides buy stuff, stream songs
Speaker 1: and watch things. But you couldn't imagine that then, Like
Speaker 1: right now, think about think about things in your life
Speaker 1: that are absolutely normal, that are just regular regular. Your
Speaker 1: mind has been changed. I don't know if y'all remember
Speaker 1: the episode where I was giving y'all like reading assignments,
Speaker 1: and one of those books was called The Sacred Canopy.
Speaker 1: And this is a perfect example of how that works.
Speaker 1: Where we make culture, then culture makes us right because
Speaker 1: now our brains can't think of think of stuff that
Speaker 1: like you couldn't even them in ninety six. That I
Speaker 1: don't know how we exist without it. I think one obviously,
Speaker 1: smartphones is one of those things because like you remember,
Speaker 1: if you were, you know, old enough to be sentient
Speaker 1: in ninety six, you used to memorize phone numbers. I
Speaker 1: believe I my brain biologically cannot memorize a phone number anymore.
Speaker 1: The only number I know is mine and my wife's
Speaker 1: my daughter. Out of luck, I don't know anyone's phone number.
Speaker 1: And in ninety six I could ramble off dozens of them.
Speaker 1: You just you rapped. I'd like, I'm trying to remember,
Speaker 1: because Okay, so I was a latch key kid. Now
Speaker 1: some of y'all, y'all, that might be really before your time. Mike,
Speaker 1: latch key kid meant that, like, by the time I
Speaker 1: left for school, was nobody at the house because every
Speaker 1: my sister was so much older than me, and my
Speaker 1: mama was already at work, and when I got home
Speaker 1: was nobody there. I would walked home, and my sister, again,
Speaker 1: she was so much older than me, she wouldn't get
Speaker 1: home till like four five o'clock in the evening. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm an elementary school kid. I'm home by two fifteen.
Speaker 1: I'm just at the crib. You know, like I look,
Speaker 1: I came from. I'm from that generation. We You know,
Speaker 1: you made your own lunch, you walked, packed your own lunch,
Speaker 1: you walk to school, you walk home, you made your
Speaker 1: own snack. You're waiting for somebody to call home. But
Speaker 1: but since this is pre cell phone, I had to,
Speaker 1: like I had to call one of my parents at
Speaker 1: work to tell them I was home, so they knew
Speaker 1: I was there, right, so I'd walk in. And I'm
Speaker 1: trying right now as I'm doing this in real time
Speaker 1: for the life of me, trying to remember my mom's
Speaker 1: work phone number. But I would. I could die elt in,
Speaker 1: have no idea, it's gone. Why can't any of us
Speaker 1: remember phone numbers because our phone remembers it like smartphones,
Speaker 1: I don't. I can't do it. It's made my brain different.
Speaker 1: I can't remember. You used to have to actually know
Speaker 1: where you were going, rather than just putting an address
Speaker 1: into a device. I used to know where I was going.
Speaker 1: Now that's one thing. Like I'm just I'm from the city,
Speaker 1: so like it's very important you know where you are.
Speaker 1: Sometimes the maps don't read the hoods, the maps don't
Speaker 1: notice sets, so sometimes the map may say it's faster
Speaker 1: for you to cut down sixty seventh Street. I'm telling
Speaker 1: you right now, do not cut down sixty seven street.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So I definitely know where
Speaker 1: I am, because that was a means of surful case.
Speaker 1: Just be following that blue dot down or wrong? Alie,
Speaker 1: you understand I'm talking about there? Like, what are you
Speaker 1: talking about? You're safe? This route is five minute faster. No,
Speaker 1: this route is eternally longer because I'm oda, So I
Speaker 1: had going down that anyway. Nobody knew that like the
Speaker 1: Internet was going to be where it was, you know,
Speaker 1: hindsights obviously, as you know. But now we're here, and
Speaker 1: the people deciding what the rules are for the Internet
Speaker 1: didn't understand the Internet in ninety six either. So this
Speaker 1: is where we are. The question is who's liable and
Speaker 1: how do we go forward? And the point I kept
Speaker 1: making last week is that no matter what they decide,
Speaker 1: this is Lewis Lewis, it's gonna break the Internet in
Speaker 1: one way or another. So that being said, let's talk
Speaker 1: about some of the suggestions they made after this break.
Speaker 1: All Right, we're back. So I guess you know we're
Speaker 1: back because you hear my voice and probably the sound
Speaker 1: came anyway. It's just stuff that podcasters say. Also side note,
Speaker 1: I just saw accordingly report. We're doing good man. You
Speaker 1: guys are sharing the joint keep sharing the joint. Maybe
Speaker 1: one day I'll actually make a dive from this, maybe
Speaker 1: get a couple of royalty Maybe I'll get a royalty
Speaker 1: check years up saying, you know these ads that y'all
Speaker 1: be hearing, that's that's paying back the advance your stokes.
Speaker 1: They paid me a base pay to be able to
Speaker 1: take the time to do this. I ain't made no
Speaker 1: money sense yourself, So y'all keep threeving this I can,
Speaker 1: so I can make it into the black. You say, anyway, Internet, Internet,
Speaker 1: It's called recoupable costs. Here's where we are. You know.
Speaker 1: The Supreme Court was supposed with a situation and they
Speaker 1: was like, shit, I can't call it right. So their
Speaker 1: first suggestion was, well, this looked like this looked like
Speaker 1: a Congress situation. We think Congress need to pass a law.
Speaker 1: That's our answer. Supreme Court basically was like, Uh, ask
Speaker 1: your mother. Listen, I'm a dad. Okay, let me tell
Speaker 1: you how many times this is what they first thought.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you how many times one of my child,
Speaker 1: one of my child, one of my cheering came to
Speaker 1: me and asked me a question. Now here's a thing.
Speaker 1: Not only am I, but daddy I'm a black daddy,
Speaker 1: and unfortunately, my default to anything they ask me is no,
Speaker 1: leave me alone. I don't know where this old crotchety
Speaker 1: black man inside of me is. It's just I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: the first time they asked me something, First, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: look around and see if you're asking me for something
Speaker 1: in the presence of unfinished chores, Like listen. I know
Speaker 1: I'm a rapper, I know, listen, listen, listen, listen. I
Speaker 1: don't know what to tell you. An old black man
Speaker 1: somehow is climbing its way. I ain't got a gray
Speaker 1: hair on my body, but I tell you what, that
Speaker 1: old black man is coming up out. So my first
Speaker 1: thought is like, I ain't a way you're asking me
Speaker 1: for anything in the presence of in his chores. So
Speaker 1: that's my first thought. So first thing is I'm gonna
Speaker 1: look around. Sometimes it's because I'm it's embarrassing, but I'm
Speaker 1: looking for a reason to say no. But most of
Speaker 1: the time what they're asking me is rather reasonable. I'm
Speaker 1: trying to break generational curses here. I'm trying to break
Speaker 1: some habits. See generationally, that's what it did. So and
Speaker 1: because when you kind of got that black dass scenario.
Speaker 1: Your children don't ever want to come to you anyway.
Speaker 1: They're like, uh, he's just gonna say no. Look, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna asking something. He gonna give me a chore. Right.
Speaker 1: I hate it, but it's so true. So look, I'll
Speaker 1: be wanting my kids to come have fun. Now. I'm fun.
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, I'm hell of fun. Like I'm
Speaker 1: the one wrestling with him. I'm the one tickling with them.
Speaker 1: I'm the one if we go to like a fair
Speaker 1: or an amusement part. My wife, you know, doctor Alma,
Speaker 1: she don't. She don't do roller coasters, you know. So
Speaker 1: for my older daughter, like it was me like I'm
Speaker 1: the one. I'm like you want to get on Yes,
Speaker 1: let's go get on it. You understand what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like I'm the one doing that. Now we paired off
Speaker 1: because it's not like we're not both fun. Because the
Speaker 1: dock she got the sweet tooth. So if you ask
Speaker 1: if she go, if one of the kids be like
Speaker 1: I feel like ice cream, the dock is like absolutely,
Speaker 1: and she's immediately DoorDash ice cream. They're immediately hopping into
Speaker 1: the car like so she's y'all wants to donuts. I
Speaker 1: wants to donuts, like immediately they start with dessert because
Speaker 1: i'ma got the sweet tooth, you know, so we share
Speaker 1: the wealth. But most of the time, I because my
Speaker 1: kids don't talk to me the way they talk to
Speaker 1: their mama. I don't know what they didn't dealt with.
Speaker 1: I don't know what they didn't figure it out. I
Speaker 1: don't know what law or rule has changed in our
Speaker 1: house right while I was away. You understand what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: because let's be real, I live in a queendom. It
Speaker 1: is a matriarchy in my house. The cat and the
Speaker 1: hamster are also women, like everything, and then we got
Speaker 1: all these plants, and apparently the plants of girls too.
Speaker 1: I just like, I can't there's nothing. I am the
Speaker 1: only white crowso for miles, I'm saying, so sometimes I
Speaker 1: really don't be knowing the answer. Not only that, I'd
Speaker 1: be tired of being the one saying no. So they
Speaker 1: asked me something, I really don't have an answer. I'll
Speaker 1: be like asking mother because I don't know, or do
Speaker 1: I not want to decide. I look, I can't call
Speaker 1: it dad, Can I have a dessert? Asking mama? I
Speaker 1: don't look hey, what are we doing today? Asking Mama, Hey,
Speaker 1: can I go to did you ask you? Mother? Like,
Speaker 1: because I just sounds like a mom decision to me,
Speaker 1: because I really don't have an answer. You feel me.
Speaker 1: I out gun and out man. Sometimes I walk in
Speaker 1: the house, I'm like, hey, uh, why you ain't do
Speaker 1: the dishes? She's like, Mom said, I don't have to
Speaker 1: do it? Like what excuse me? I'm listening, I'm dadding
Speaker 1: up to. All I'm saying is basically the Supreme Court
Speaker 1: was like asking mother, right, Congress like, hold wait, hold on,
Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, hold on, don't you put that
Speaker 1: evil on us. We don't know what we're doing either.
Speaker 1: Don't you put that evil on me? Ricky Bobby, Congress
Speaker 1: like look and again, I can't stress this enough. Our
Speaker 1: governing system, it is purposely designed to be slow because
Speaker 1: you want to make sure that every voice is heard.
Speaker 1: At least that's the design. And it ain't what's happening
Speaker 1: because of lobbying and other reasons. But millions of them
Speaker 1: gestures while money. You know what I'm trying to say.
Speaker 1: The point is, but the design is so that every
Speaker 1: voice is heard, that we were thoughtful about what we
Speaker 1: decide that the system of checks and balances are not,
Speaker 1: like we don't run ahead of ourselves. Make sure we're
Speaker 1: not making stuff that's like we're gonna have to veto
Speaker 1: later or undo later, although obviously we do it all
Speaker 1: the time, you know what I'm saying. But the design
Speaker 1: is not it's not designed to move as fast as
Speaker 1: the tech world is, because again the tech world is new,
Speaker 1: like we've never seen nothing like this technology moving faster.
Speaker 1: Like you have to remember and like, and I know
Speaker 1: I sound like an old head, but like, like, please
Speaker 1: keep this in mind. From nineteen hundred to nineteen sixty,
Speaker 1: we went from like horses to space. Fam Like, you
Speaker 1: have to look, if you look at like you look
Speaker 1: at the world in ten thousand BC, and then you
Speaker 1: look at the world in eight thousand BC, pretty much
Speaker 1: the same as the world in five thousand BC, as
Speaker 1: the world in two thousand BC. It's pretty much it's
Speaker 1: you guys, new niggas in charge. It's pretty like I
Speaker 1: it's pretty much just pretty much the same technologically speaking.
Speaker 1: Of course, there were some big things that the ancient
Speaker 1: Romans came up with. Don't get me wrong, I'm not
Speaker 1: trying to flatten all history. I'm just saying it moved
Speaker 1: a lot slower, just pretty much, just generally, if you
Speaker 1: lived in eighteen oh one and you lived in eighteen eighty,
Speaker 1: it's just you're it's just that London smelled like bodily
Speaker 1: feces because there was no sewage just for the whole
Speaker 1: eighty years. Like it was pretty much the same. Well
Speaker 1: you get you get an extra wheel on your carriage,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like it's the same, and
Speaker 1: then we go for we go from like that to
Speaker 1: space like in under one hundred years, so we'd like
Speaker 1: that world just got just changed. Our systems not designed
Speaker 1: to keep up with that type of change. So the
Speaker 1: first suggestion was like, yo, Congress, Congress is like nigga, well,
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do, asking mother, your mother,
Speaker 1: like what now even your kids that is your child
Speaker 1: you arepare to. You need to give some guidance so
Speaker 1: that the next thought would be, well, what have other
Speaker 1: parents done? And as Congress thinks about what other parents
Speaker 1: have done, let's lay out the lay of the land here.
Speaker 1: It's like, first of all, let's we are both sides
Speaker 1: of that. I'll agreed as something wrong, But like if
Speaker 1: nobody's happy. There's got to be something to happen. You have,
Speaker 1: like obviously, you know, the left leaning liberal sort of
Speaker 1: side is like, yo, they need some oversight, they need
Speaker 1: some regulations, right, and then you have these are broad strokes,
Speaker 1: you know, right side being like we need our freedom,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, they need They're like, they
Speaker 1: need some oversight, but so that you would stop suppressing
Speaker 1: conservative voices, you know what I'm saying. Like there are
Speaker 1: everybody's thinking that the other people are the problem, but
Speaker 1: actually don't understand the problem. It's like, look, look, look, look,
Speaker 1: look to me, this is the bleeding heart white NGO
Speaker 1: going into third world countries, going into the global South
Speaker 1: thinking they got an answer, thinking the answers this or
Speaker 1: the answers that, like Nikki, y'all not you're not forged
Speaker 1: these fires, y'all don't understand the layer of the land already.
Speaker 1: You may have your solution that you think might work
Speaker 1: like this, but you won't understand how this stuff work
Speaker 1: right here. You know, it was a big thing with
Speaker 1: Tom Shoes. You know, I'm really I'm really going back
Speaker 1: to the early Yotts, you know what I'm saying, Tom
Speaker 1: shoes with the one for one thing. It's like, you
Speaker 1: buy a par of these dumb ass shoes, which I
Speaker 1: had a pair. I'm gonna keep it real. You know,
Speaker 1: I was hipster hop you know what I'm saying. I
Speaker 1: knew some folks that worked at Tom's. It was good folks,
Speaker 1: you know. But you get a pair of them slippers
Speaker 1: and they send another pair of back to Africa, you know,
Speaker 1: or some sort of developing country, which is you know,
Speaker 1: by default, putting a shoemakers out of business in Africa.
Speaker 1: You understand what I'm saying. So like you just you
Speaker 1: pulling one level, you're creating this other problem. It's like,
Speaker 1: how do we solve this free speech situation? Because if
Speaker 1: you put this regulation in there, you're gonna say, again,
Speaker 1: who gets to be in charge of the regulatory body?
Speaker 1: Who gets to set those rules? And when do you
Speaker 1: infringe on free speech? Niggas? Nobody knows? But here you
Speaker 1: let's ask some other parents. Let's ask some other folks like, well,
Speaker 1: what how did y'all what were some of y'all solutions?
Speaker 1: And the other parents they asked, was the EU talk
Speaker 1: about what they came up with? Next? So look, so
Speaker 1: here's what the EU did. They went the regulatory reporting
Speaker 1: body situation. So when the EU, what you gotta do
Speaker 1: is you have to send in reports, like if you're
Speaker 1: if you're a big tech company, you have to you
Speaker 1: have to report to this regulatory body who can enact
Speaker 1: certain types of punishments if you don't step in when
Speaker 1: it was obvious you should have. Yeah, y'all following me,
Speaker 1: like where this board can look at this and be like, okay,
Speaker 1: look there's there was a problem brewing here. Y'all should
Speaker 1: have said something, you know, and they can and whatever
Speaker 1: those punishments are. Listen, I'm not in the EU. Whatever
Speaker 1: those punishments are, you know, sometimes they're fine, sometimes they're
Speaker 1: shut down, whatever the case may be. You got to
Speaker 1: do that. Now, how could they do that over there? Well,
Speaker 1: one that that's not America. D ain't got the same
Speaker 1: less a fair economics we got. Da ain't got the
Speaker 1: same First Amendment, you know, a cult that we got right.
Speaker 1: But also think of it like this. You have regulatory bodies.
Speaker 1: Your utilities companies have to report, right, you know, the LADWP,
Speaker 1: Department of Water and Power. They can't just be all
Speaker 1: willy nilly with this. They have to report what they
Speaker 1: do and are your power companies? They got to report? Why?
Speaker 1: Because those are utilities? Now, how could the you do this?
Speaker 1: It's because they believe the Internet is a utility. You're
Speaker 1: following me. They just fundamentally think of the Internet different again,
Speaker 1: they think of the Internet the way we think of
Speaker 1: like cell phone service. Like it's Verizon, Like Verizon can't
Speaker 1: just do what they want. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: They have there's regulations you feel me? Right? So if
Speaker 1: America can't come up with its own laws or its
Speaker 1: own things, like by default, if you're a company, you're like, well,
Speaker 1: I don't want to have to report, like if all
Speaker 1: of y'all all got different laws, I'm just gonna like
