THE SENSATIONAL PUBLIC REPORT THAT BIG TECH IS TERRIFIED YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY READ.
AFTER 16 MONTHS AND HUNDREDS OF CONTENTIOUS INTERVIEWS--INCLUDING WITH CEOS MARK ZUCKERBERG, TIM COOK, SUNDAR PICHAI, AND JEFF BEZOS (WHO COLLECTIVELY CONTROL MORE THAN $5 TRILLION IN MARKET VALUE)--THE DAMNING US JUDICIARY COMMITTEE REPORT ON THE ABUSES OF THE TECH INDUSTRY IS FINALLY HERE. ONE OF THE MOST RADICAL DOCUMENTS IN CONGRESSIONAL HISTORY, THE REPORT PRECISELY PINPOINTS HOW FOUR AMERICAN COMPANIES HAVE CREATED UNCONTESTABLE MONOPOLIES BY EXPLOITING LOOPHOLES IN FEDERAL REGULATION AND BY MANIPULATING MARKETS. EACH COMPANY'S STRATEGIC GOALS AND ANTICOMPETITIVE BUSINESS MODELS ARE ANALYZED IN GREAT DETAIL AND THE FINDINGS ARE CLEAR: IF THESE COMPANIES ARE NOT CHECKED, THEY WILL CONTINUE TO THROTTLE RETAIL TRADE, SQUASH INNOVATION, COLLECT UNJUST RENTS, AND BEND JOURNALISM TO THEIR WILL. A SCINITILLATING PAGE-TURNER FROM START TO FINISH IF YOU LOVE FREEDOM AND HATE TYRANNY.

"OUR INVESTIGATION LEAVES NO DOUBT THAT THERE IS A CLEAR AND COMPELLING NEED FOR CONGRESS AND THE ANTITRUST ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES TO TAKE ACTION."
--JUDICIARY COMMITTEE CHAIR JERROLD NADLER (D-NY).
"IN ADDITION TO THESE SPECIFIC REFORMS, THE SUBCOMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT CONGRESS RECONSIDER REASSERTING THE ORIGINAL INTENT AND BROAD GOALS OF THE ANTITRUST LAWS, BY CLARIFYING THAT THEY ARE DESIGNED TO PROTECT NOT JUST CONSUMERS, BUT ALSO WORKERS, ENTREPRENEURS, INDEPENDENT BUSINESSES, OPEN MARKETS, A FAIR ECONOMY, AND DEMOCRATIC IDEALS."
