It would be nice if they weren't so quiet. The fact that they are tells you a lot about the kind of power FB et al have.

Yea this would be a lot more effective if other countries participated. What are they going to do, block everyone from Facebook news?

I've read that Facebook has actually been trying to reduce their reliance on news in all their products, so the answer is actually a possible "yes", they would do a global news block.

Sounds like a net positive.

Yeah, since Nov 2016.
