But the reason I’m increasingly shunning Big Tech‐particularly social media giants Facebook and Twitter‐is not the reason Congress is suddenly interested in them. Their interest is one of market monopolies..."The House Judiciary Committee announced Monday that it will hold a series of hearings as part of a bipartisan investigation into whether there is enough competition among U.S. technology companies." |
