Regulation might here - something like minimum mandatory 3 months notice for shutting down the API keys. Considering the average age of our politicians, I doubt they’ll understand what “API” is, much less be willing to take on giant tech corporations even if they did understand the problems

- akudha 2y agoNot really. There is a big difference between making noise and actually doing something about the power of big tech.
- xp84 2y agoYeah, what’s popular is actually to crap all over the first amendment by mandating private companies to allow whatever each politician’s special definition of “free speech” is (but of course probably also not allowing whatever the politician’s definition of “dangerous misinformation” is). As for the actual anticompetitive power of big tech, absolute crickets.
