SENATE BILL: Breaking Big Corporations Act (Passed)

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

Hate to sound like a corporatist here, but I do not believe it is constitutional to directly single-out individuals or businesses in Congressional legislation. I hope tack can address this in his advocacy.

But yet the progressive movement of the late 19th and early 20th century fought for anti-trust to do just this. The goal of such a bill would be to enforce such laws.

Of course progressivism has been bought and paid for by these corporations so they will never fight them. I will.

Did those antitrust laws specifically target corporations like Standard Oil by name? It's the "by name" part that might not be constitutional. I'm not opposed to breaking them up.

We don't need to actually fundraise here, so no one's "buying" me.

How is a company measured by its size or portion of the market share in dollars?

There's a reason they do this & it's not out of the kindness of their heart- if you're not paying for a product it's because you are the product. Youtube is made with ease of access, and with suggestions so that they can target certain content at you, get you to engage and most importantly get an accurate picture for the advertising they sell.

I think ease of access has to be weighted up with the lack of action on various pretty vile stuff from anti-vax conspiracies to neo-nazis & anti-semetic hate speech.

It's not really relevant if they aren't doing this out of good of their hearts, because businesses in general is generally driven by self-interest. And any tech firm that would replace them would also be driven by self-interest.

So just to be clear, you are okay with your data being tracked and sold by corporations?

Yes. I would, though I would also be fine with GDPR-style regulations to allow me to tell them to stop.

Would you elaborate on this?
