I wish regulators good luck trying to regulate bittorrent and other peer to peer software. Not to even talk about what can be found with just installing the tor browser

They'll make it inconvenient to use anything but their DRM protected browser and DRM protected and certified OS. It's going to be like with android, where rooting your phone makes it impossible for most banks to do online banking. I personally stopped rooting my phone as I'm not fortunate enough to own two and carry two with me. Eventually they'll get you.

And guess what Google and Microsoft currently work on with the new web technologies, exactly what described above.

My bank app works fine with rooting last I checked. These days I just run a custom rom with gapps. The thing is that nothing Google and Microsoft do will matter in this case as there will always be websites that don't use it. Especially when talking about Piracy and websites running on tor or i2p. Even if illegal, new options will show up
