    The problem with that is that some lobbying is good it’s just that the EFF for instance can’t compete with Google.

      How abut outlawing that corporations can lobby? You have to be a non-profit and ran by people not affiliated with any corporations. CEO has to make a low threshold per year. We can work around that.

        Yes but the buggers always find a way around it. Charities are banned from lobbying in Britain. Greenpeace UK simply set up a corporate entity Greenpeace Ltd to do the lobbying for it.
