It's not what Ceglowski advocates, but it's what this "regulate, regulate, regulate" chant, aimed against the evil-American-internet-giants, will more often achieve.

It's what those independent European politicians are already pushing. They couldn't care less about a little technocratic tweak like "only target ads based on content". They want rules, fines, and discretion that lets them bend internet media to match their ideologies and establishments. (Not to advance the progressive aims Ceglowski prefers.)

Maybe in a future presentation Ceglowski can explain the specific regulations he wants – how they can win enactment & then achieve good results. But he didn't even get to them in his time here, and even in the full transcript they're just superficial bullet points. That makes them seem like perfunctory afterthoughts – not at all ready to appear on the agenda, compared to the actual, rapidly-advancing internet-censorship regulations that Europe is already pushing.
