Ron DeSantis is sick and tired of the average person being left behind by Big Tech.
Democrats worked with social media platforms to hide information all throughout the 2020 and 2022 elections.
Not only that, censorship was out of control.
DeSantis hopes to stop that with the Digital Bill of Rights that he introduced this week.
The Little Guy
You want to know why DeSantis has not announced yet?
Because he can do far more good by holding off and rocking it out for his constituents in Florida until the last possible second.
On the new legislation, DeSantis stated, “We want to protect your right as a Floridian to have private, in-person conversations without Big Tech surveilling you.
“If you want to consent to let them have this information so they can fashion advertising based off of it, it’s your right to consent to do so but it should only be if you consent.”
He continued, “We are also going to protect the right to participate in online platforms without unfair censorship.
“We want free speech.
“We want to protect the right to know how these internet search engines are manipulating search results [and have] transparency in terms of what they’re doing so you can evaluate if that’s a search engine that you want to use or maybe you want to take your business elsewhere.
“We want the right to protect all of your personal on the largest and most common platforms.
“They take that data and make a fortune.
“They should get authorization from you before they are able to monetize that or use it in any way.”
“And, finally, the Digital Bill of Rights aims to protect children from various online harms and, as we that’s a huge issue.”
The other thing that most people do not seem to realize is that if DeSantis announces he is going to run, he has to resign from his current post.
He will want to stay in office as long as possible to make the biggest impact before announcing, if he announces.
I am still not convinced that DeSantis wants to take on Trump in a coin-flip situation.
