They won’t.
- aurareturn 5mo agoThey will. DOJ prosecuted memory makers in the late 90s and 2000s for collusion. This boom is magnitudes higher than before. The attention will be endless.
- deadbabe 5mo agoCurrent DOJ is corrupt as fuck, it will not happen. Get back to reality.
- aurareturn 5mo agoThey will respond when people are loud enough. If memory stays at $1200 for 128GB for years and investigative journalists say it could be colluding, enough people will make enough noise. I’m sure Nvidia, Elon, Tim Cook, OpenAI, Anthropic are already whispering in Trump’s ears to do something.
- wahnfrieden 5mo agoOnce the masses are disenfranchised network state serfs according to plan, loudness won't matter
- BigTTYGothGF 5mo ago> I’m sure Nvidia, Elon, Tim Cook, OpenAI, Anthropic are already whispering in Trump’s ears to do something You can't expect me to believe that any of those would want any kind of antitrust action against anybody.
- aurareturn 5mo agoSure they do. They all have money interests in this. They all want lower memory prices. Memory prices and shortages directly impact all of their profit margins and revenue.
- deadbabe 5mo agoThey have other ways of getting what they want.
- aurareturn 5mo agoWhat magical way do they have of getting cheaper RAM if there really is collusion?
- deadbabe 5mo agoWhat journalists? People who type shit into ChatGPT and post the article as their own? Journalism is dead. There will be no more investigative journalists like the type you describe.
- kortilla 5mo agoCorrupt doesn’t mean “acts without incentives”. If you assume a corrupt system, then the inputs are going to be who has influence over the DOJ. If there is more money to be made by breaking a cartel, then they would absolutely do it.
- CamperBob2 5mo agoThat was a very different DOJ. They no longer work for us. They act as Trump's personal law firm.
