It is window dressing. It's just the right next step towards the ability to really open up government (i.e., have elections for ideas and not people - that's what I've been working on lately, I think it's our way forward). If we know exactly what the people want, and we can get that data easily and efficiently, what do we need politicians for? I'm pretty confident that any government attempt to regulate the internet will end in failure long-term.My only fear is that it gets treated as window dressing
When they're about to cast a vote, they can know in real time what their constituents want.
It seems we are losing the Net Neutrality debate in the US
