Re: Keep mum and see what happens

said by Jason Levine:

You would probably have had to fill out a three page form (in triplicate) in order to start a website. Want interactivity on your website (e.g. a forum)? No problem. Just fill out form WT-A-F3R-7, pay your $50 application fee and, once it's approved (probably a 4 week wait), you can add the feature. Of course, corporations would be able to do this with minimal fuss because their lobbyists would have structured the laws to allow them to have multiple requests rubber-stamped while individuals need to wade through bureaucracy. (All the better to keep potential web sites critical of the corporations from springing up.)
Could be coming, since the government has apparently given up much of the control. At least it looks like a few coporations have started takeing the first steps. No more robust system, just little corporate domains with different ideas of what should be priority.
