There will never be legislation to help with the absurdities of online "articles" as long as there are no term limits.  I'll never forget Zuckerberg basically explaining to a congressman how email works....
There shouldn’t be. It would be a first amendment disaster.

The late Ted Stevens (R-AK), everybody:

Ten movies streaming across that, that Internet, and what happens to your own personal Internet? I just the other day got... an Internet was sent by my staff at 10 o'clock in the morning on Friday. I got it yesterday [Tuesday]. Why? Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the Internet commercially.

[...] They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the Internet. And again, the Internet is not something that you just dump something on. It's not a big truck. It's a series of tubes. And if you don't understand, those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and it's going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.
FYI I agree with @bayareabadger that there shouldn't be legislation to deal with online articles, for many many reasons including his cited reason of the first amendment.

Wow, who saw that coming?

CFB.
Truth.

And some days it's good that I don't have much time to watch college football. About the time this happened to the Badgers, my daughter scored the insurance goal in her playoff game (soccer). That was more important. :-)

Feels a lot like '93. The Badgers were 6-0, going to last-place Minnesota, and had Michigan at home the following week. Everyone expected UW to roll, with a great rushing offense against the weakest defense in the Big Ten (or maybe it was the opposite? It was a long time ago). I went to Minneapolis with my buddies for the game. Disaster. But the Badgers beat Michigan the next week. Would be nice if the outcome here was similar.

Michigan wasn't that good in 1993. Ohio State is a monster, and it's on the road. I can't see it.

Wisconsin losing takes some wind out of the sails of the upcoming Buckeye game, but honestly it doesn't have any effect on the type of game it stands to be.  I was looking forward to it before, I'm looking forward to it now.  Everything is still in play.  Still want to see if UW can slow down OSU.  Still want to see if UW can keep grinding away at a defense like OSU.  It's still must see tv.  

Just get that one done by 2:30 CST is all I ask.

Agree with MDT, I'm still looking forward to the Wisconsin - OSU game as well.

And Michigan was at home, not on the road.

So I'm not too far off from where you are, but I'm still hopeful. The point someone else made is worth considering: the Badgers' best two games have been against Michigan and MSU, and its worst two have been against Northwestern and Illinois. There is a reasonable chance that, regardless of what they say to the media, they have prepared better for the bigger tests.

Their own words, not mine. Actually, Chris Orr's words. He stated the same today, in effect, in that he said nothing was different except they got outplayed. Zach Baun, on the other hand, came out and said they overlooked Illinois.

So... which is it?

Who is saying there will be? What’s said “online” is almost ungovernable due to the first amendment, the nature of what an article is or isn’t, and how far behind and impotent International Laws have proven to be when it comes to enforcement beyond national capacities.

I get that, but the purposeful, misleading clickbait that's holding our online browsing hostage is akin to yelling "Fire!" in a crowded theater, no?  Nearly infinite bots flooding every page you view makes it impossible to extract the important truth from the avalanche of BS...by design.  


This is not okay.

We cannot simply throw our hands up and let anarchy reign.  You wouldn't allow it on your streets, why allow it online?
