US Big Tech is conspiring with European (and American) fascists to wreck the EU's ability to even modestly regulate this rogue industry, which has unparalleled -- and growing -- power over people's lives.

Fascism and tech are an unholy, and maybe unstoppable, alliance.

@dangillmor It's strange, because I worked in the tech industry all my adult life, even in SiV, and I was always aware that contributions from all the worlds people made possible what was being done. EU people, Russians, Chinese, India, Iranians, women and even old people.
It's a shame that the profession has drifted toward white supremacist tendencies, alignment with fascist ideology. -

The BigTech is sliding in to replace the BigOil, nothing more, nothing less, like the BigTabacco before them… the Unfetted Capitalist Ogre. -

@dangillmor they should read "careless people". They've absolutely been courting the far right as they know they won't regulate if they find it gives them power.

@dangillmor Ban their fucking servers from EU phone lines and radio channels. Throw Meta and Google under the maglev train and move on. Its awful hard to figure out where your users are for targetted ads when all traffic has to pass through the Tor network...

@dangillmor when you make few moderately smart people think they are the best of the best, it goes to their head and now they mistakenly believe they are the best to run the whole world.

@dangillmor Perhaps we should abolish a few more rules then. Like the intellectual property rules which give these crooks their power in the first place

@dangillmor the EU should stop using American tech asap, no AWS, no Azure or Windows. The push towards FOSS is the only way to really be independent from US meddling.

@dangillmor They're totally stoppable. Combined we have far more resources than they do.
