The time to reign in Big Tech was a couple of decades ago. Unfortunate Congress--and this is one of the infrequent times that "both sides" is actually accurate--simply refuses to do anything at all.
If you think for one second that I am comparing the USA to China you have bumped your hard.

Thanks for letting us know what was said. I couldn’t agree more and it’s not just a problem in Tech.

They don't understand technology. Hard to legislate what's a mystery. In addition, there's no public push for tech company regulation and politicians only do things that are popular (because their job is to be popular and get elected). I mean, there wasn't even much of an uproar when Ajit Pai et al crushed net neutrality. Can't blame the politicians any more than you can blame the american public, imo.

Written by Doctorow so it's hard to dismiss imo
