Depends on how you define "young people", the average age of the US congress is 58 and Senate at 64. If the people I know in that age bracket are representative, they certainly don't exist in the "peer domain" that even has a conception of what we're discussing, even less so in the context of digital/software shit.
We're talking from 1958-1964, in particular (predominately) the "elite" class of people born in that period who became successful career politicians, who are arguably (though not much of one when considering the evolution of IP law...) beholden to lobbyists which is just a convoluted way to say corporate interests or arm twisting from their peers...
So no, young people aren't in control, and the ones that are will ostensibly be borne to power from their favorable starting position which means they're probably going to follow the trajectory and preserve the status quo.
