Republicans: You have to learn you are not above the law. We are issuing a demerit.

Big-Tech: Like, what does a demerit mean?

Republicans: Let's put it this way, you do not want to receive three of those.

Big-Tech: Lay it on me.

Republicans: Three demerits and you'll receive a citation.

Big-Tech: Now, that sounds serious.

Republicans: Oh it is serious. Five citations and you're looking at a violation. Four of those and you'll receive a verbal warning. Keep it up, and you're looking at a written warning. Two of those, that'll land you in world of hurt. In the form of a disciplinary review, written up by us, and placed on the desk of the NY Times.
