Hopefully the antitrust lawsuits in which about 30 state Attorney’s General have sued various Big Tech companies will result in Big Tech being busted up.

Alphabet is by a mile the worst and urgently needs to be broken into a thousand pieces. Facebook is a distant 2nd. Microsoft, Amazon and Apple should all be forced to hive off various parts of their businesses too.

“We do not know exactly how much money Meta received from the government to assist in the propaganda war against the American people.”

If Twitter got money to allow spying on its customers, Meta and others also got paid.

“FB was never a profit source, it was an information vacuum for the feds and internationals and they paid handsomely!”

We couldn’t believe the adults addicted to FB!

Meta is about to start its next round of layoffs.

If that’s not a warning sign to sell the stocks nothing is.

Options: Sink or swim

It looks like there will be a fire sale on all the RVs those tech employees live in.

Facebook has or in the process of firing 21,000 people since Nov 2022. 4,000 just today. More to come I bet.
New Twitter fired 80% of 7,500 people and counting as Elon Musk has said (paraphrasing) you do not need as many if they are just censoring people.
