FANTASTIC.. 👍

I'm sure Jack is devastated

Good for the UK less Scammers.

More honest to tax it than to charge for hyperlinks which is what the EU is going to do.

Is Obama and Big Mike in charge over there yet, maybe he can salvage his legacy.

Control! DavidLammy look how well they’re doing in Uganda suppressing their people of information and knowledge. You were right, its a utopia!

Hopefully they all subscribed to PewDiePie before getting off the internet.

or maybe they didn't want to open a can of worms .... aka social anxiety issues and widespread fake news !?

Better if the social media sites paid the correct amount.... :-s

WHAT'S WORKING TODAY... to produce results? Who is sharing the wealth? Incredible

I wonder, if that happened here in the US, how many people would quit the internet?
