Oh they also put TikTok’s name directly in the legislation. Which is unconstitutional. Not even by interpretation. The Constitution directly, and in plain English, bans the practice.
This entire thing is a giant cesspool of constitutional fuckery.
You have evidence of that? Because I saw all of that in my feeds on the daily.
CEO honestly thinks Trump and the Republicans are going to go after tech monopolies. Either he’s detached from reality or he’s trying to keep them from coming after Proton by cooperating. Either way is not great.
Oh I’m not saying the damage is equivalent. But generally the government needs to show it’s work in a democracy, if we want to keep the democracy.
Where evidence?
Because Chinese intelligence doesn’t trawl YouTube, Meta, and X?
Lmao IOS? Next is Windows then?
You can’t untangle the outsourcing of manufacturing to China from that.
Because it’s not in good faith. And saying Trump is good for trust busting is revisionist history at best.
Hi. I see that you’re posting from a Netherlands instance. On the chance that you’re not familiar with how the Republican party operates I’m going to explain. Any department that is seen as being against business gets a person from the business world. They always promise to do a great job, using their business knowledge. And they always do their level best to destroy or neuter that department.
We are currently at part 2, where they promise to do a great job.
For the most recent infamous example, check out Ajit Pai. He served in the Bush administration as an Anti Trust lawyer before Trump gave him control of the FCC to blow up net neutrality.
That’s the thing, the last time the government did something this sweeping without showing it’s evidence, me and a few hundred thousand of my best buddies got sent to Iraq.
Russia is on the list too. But that’s the point. They can declare that an owner is compromised, no matter what citizenship they hold.
Once you’ve spent some time the algorithm learns what you like. For example my feed is a lot of indie music, civil rights, and table top role-playing stuff. Once it gets enough information on the stuff you like you don’t really need to do more than swipe past the ads.
It’s any app they can point to as being controlled. It does not matter where it is based. As an example they could allege that one of the owners of Discord has Russian contacts and is therefore controlled by a foreign adversary. (He was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine; where contact between Russians and Ukrainians wasn’t uncommon before the current war.)
Congress can request a briefing but if they want to prevent a fire sale they have to pass an entirely new bill amending the law.
And this article is so transparently an ad for Red Note it’s ridiculous.
They could listen to a Joe Rogan podcast the exact same way. They’re on public transport, what the fuck else are they going to do but look at their phone or listen to something with headphones?
Where’s the evidence then?
The law is broad enough they could target Discord.
You forget, that first question is asked in a positive way in the Military Industrial Complex.
Unfortunately Denmark is their best protection from the US. Trump set back their plans by a decade at least.
Surely you’d be willing to share those studies then? Because the only one I’ve seen was NCRI who didn’t make that claim and are hilariously biased.
