The perception that big tech's power is above everyone and the law only helps to make their position more authoritarian
- dylan604 5y agoIn this case, money is power and big tech has all the money. The field is tilted in their favor in an even more extreme manner than David v Goliath. No mere mortal could even afford to fight them via litigation. Fighting them legislatively is also Sisyphean as they can afford much better lobbyists. Sometimes, perception is reality.
- cblconfederate 5y agoi was just making a meta comment but honestly you re describing a system that would be self-annihilating if one has no legal recourse from money. I don't think that's the case or else america would be a bad place for business The rest of the world doesnt depend on US courts. Apple has lost trademark battles before.
- bmitc 5y agoUnfortunately, it's not a perception. It's practical reality. I'm in full agreement regarding their coopting of the word meta.
