You have really pathetic law in the US. After something like that in Europe, the company managers would have really huge problems.

And in US people seem to be happy about that. If they wouldn't, it would be changed.

No one is happy, but we have almost zero opportunity to affect change. Look at the FCC's deliberately crappy email campaign for responses on eliminating net neutrality. They won't even release the data to a state DA. Between gerrymandered districts and lock step Republicans controlling everything currently, not to mention local monopolies by the biggest ISPs, our ability to affect change is virtually zero.

In the US, we have cities with higher populations than your countries. Lots of people care but their opinions are rendered meaningless by the millions of people who don't.
