Well I think we can agree to disagree on regulation as the method of fixing the issue. Of course we should do something. I'll admit I'm not sure what though and have no better proposal. I just believe regulation is too blunt an instrument.

I don't see how anything but regulation would do it. The companies clearly don't give a shit, and they won't, as they can't really be held accountable.
