Does "the government doesn't get to decide what people can look at on the internet" count as C or D to you? It is the situation we've been in technically for 20 years now anyway; the world hasn't ended and it generally seems to be pretty workable. The status quo isn't an especially radical one.

20 years ago was only 2006. The internet has been around for much longer. The first consumer focused ISPs launched in the early 90’s, 35 years ago, but CompuServe and others were providing access to chat and BBS’s in the 80s.

I’d say nearly 50 years is precedent enough that government intervention is unnecessary.

Yeah but most people weren't on the internet access in the early 90s. It is more a 2005+ phenomenon.
