#America: This is what happens when you #fail to #BreakUpBigTech & it won't stop.🤦‍♂️👇

"The #legislation, called the “Based Act,” emerged from an unusual alliance of “little tech” advocates, including influential startup incubator Y Combinator & the army of small companies it backs, along with #consumer groups. Sponsored by state Sen. Scott Wiener, a San Francisco Democrat & a leading voice on #tech #regulation in #California"

It has been too long overdue to #BreakupBigTech - no country allows dangerously addictive narcotics to #selfregulate (correct?) - so, if you can't effectively regulate them, break them up.👇

Das habe ich zwar nicht nur aus digitalen Unabhängigkeitsgründen und auch nicht direkt heute getan, aber ich finde es trotzdem passend:
