> I understand that YouTube doesn't adjudicate claims themselves, but I think this may explain why they don't. Their adjudicators are heavily incentivized to take everything down. As a result, YouTube is hands off.

So, root cause is media conglomerates again. That just underscores my belief we should be tackling broadband ISP monopolies, and that midterms are important to secure the final FCC seat. Then we can reclassify broadband to 100 Mbps instead

I'm not an expert, but as I understand it, the argument has been that broadband is expensive to roll out to non-urban areas. So they'll make exclusive agreements with municipalities, and/or take government money to complete t

I agree that the FTC should be looking at tech. Personally I'd like to see them aimed at regional broadband ISP monopolies first, since that is an underlying infrastructure for the services we use. I'm not sure where the FTC is on

Imagine you're the copyright adjudicator for this claim at YouTube. You don't know if the claim is accurate. If it is and you leave the content up, your employer might be fined, and you get a write-up from your boss. If you take t

Please elaborate on what other "version of capitalism" is necessary. Hope we are not advocating that everything be owned by the state, as if that would allow more competition.

Your typing cadence may be another bit of identifying personal info. Not to mention they could be lying or "not know" what their tech is really doing. Wouldn't be the first time.

Not the FCC, this is one FCC commissioner's statement. He's not the chair, nor is he part of the majority party, so you can probably read this as a political statement. Republicans had a chance to ban TikTok during the last admini

I'm surprised there's no mention of Ab Initio, which looks like [1], in these threads. AFAIK they were the pioneer in BI ETL while everyone else was copying. Then again, they are pretty secretive, and that may be why I can't

It could if your $200 billion valuation is based on the stock of over-valued companies which you used to over-leverage-borrow, and you need every free penny to continue paying back debt and keep that stock price high.

It's a scam, not the government's fault. There would be no way to enforce such a law. It's on you to understand that get-rich-quick schemes are too good to be true.

That's funny. I remember when nobody knew what TikTok was, and TikTok-watermarked videos were all over Reddit's front page. It was a great marketing spot for them.

Neutral would be doing nothing and letting people work out their frustrations without an intermediary deciding for them. But that's not Facebook's culture, internal or external. In a different world, managers could still have disc

Thing is, by banning a certain viewpoint on an open platform, you are promoting another viewpoint. Those who want to be vocal about this right now are largely opposed to the court's decision. So this does not appear to be a neutral dec

Devil's advocate, you could get taken over or end up with a different board. I wouldn't like to see it but someone's got to compete with you or we'll have to send in the FTC! :)

Good communicators generally foster that environment. And their customers appreciate it, so there is an external expectation now too. Everything ends some day, but I think this will be regarded as a valuable attribute for awhile.
