That said, Dianne Feinstein is an idiot. She’s blinded by ideology and believes in an all-powerful government, but in fact government can’t accomplish what she hopes.
Just like her gun control idea, which in practice would disarm the good guys and leave the bad guys with lethal weapons, her Internet censorship idea is awful.
