Watch the proton ceo ignore this while claiming the Trump administration “wants to regulate big tech”

[sunzu2@thebrainbin.org]

Bro... Under the current regime, no big tech will be touched

Microsoft got off the hook when Bush II took office. Tech in general took that as a sign that monopolies were fine. That was just starting to be reversed when Trump took a second term and here we are.

Can we get some actual tech related news please? This is just politics OF a tech company, not tech itself.

Killing Google to serve as a warning that the rest of them had better follow orders might be useful…

[crank0271@lemmy.world]

What's the last significant tech development you remember? They're all just monopolistic lobbying firms.

[comtief@lemm.ee]

I don't understand.

[bobs_monkey@lemm.ee]

Eh I don't see that happening, the sheer amount of data Google has on the US population is probably quite useful to the admin, for, uh, reasons.

[hark@lemmy.world]

You know what? They should be broken up even harder.

[jasondj@lemmy.zip]

Nor do I. Wasn't the Proton CEO kissing the ring a few weeks ago?

[comtief@lemm.ee]

Apparently that was a misunderstanding, he communicated badly. Or I'm thinking of something else, idk. https://archive.ph/xoleo

[crank0271@lemmy.world]

This is cool - I hadn't heard of it. This article describes it (while being suspiciously similar to the press release itself):
