Yes. Uber and Lyft have driven many taxi companies out of business. SF Yellow Cab and LA Green Cab are the two largest ones. Uber and Lyft ran at losses for years losing billions of dollars to keep prices low and drive people out of busines

This is a PR statement because they got caught with their hand in the cookie jar. Same company that makes shadow profiles for people who have never used their services.

Manufacturing would like a quicker return on investment than 1000 years. We already made the plastic, they would like to do something with it.

Trump doesn't need to be so heavy handed in your imaginary scenario as this is covered by The Cloud Act. The data is still hosted by an American company so with a proper warrant, Amazon will be legally required to hand over data.

They are also shuttering Fakespot which they acquired for an untold amount of money in 2023. Sounds like this little attempt at being "AI guardrails" is over.

Conservatives flip on this depending on who is in the White House. Right now, the fed should run everything. Should Dems take back the White House then they will be back to supporting states' rights.
