I’m all for an open and free Internet, but at what point do we cut off bad actors whose largest “contribution” is to spread and manipulate through disinformation? I can’t imagine there’s a wealth of culture and good will coming out of Russia via the Internet today, but it seems I hear about this week after week.

The problem is it doesn't all come out of russia. They have operations in other countries as well.

Yeah I get that, but it’s more about stepping on the water hose.
