Certain politicians that are concerned about "the young people are being radicalized online" about certain topics, uncomfortable to said politicians (left / right dialectic doesn't matter, especially not in America). They know that their monopoly over brainwashing children in public schools matters a lot. So, their solution is to shut off any access to any site where you can discuss topics anonymously by forcing more and more regulation to shut down said sites.

Yes, yes, free speech and everything, you just have to first give the OS your phone number, credit card number, drink a verification can and please also... you do want to still keep your job, right?
