“Big Tech was the culmination of the corporate liberal ideology and the globalized economy it envisioned. This was an economy that by the early twenty-first century depended less and less on producing anything tangible, or on producers themselves, for that matter, but lavished ever greater rewards on the rarified, highly educated, largely urban technologist class.” PowerEconomyCorruptionControlGlobalizationElitismJosh HawleyThe Tyranny Of Big TechBig Tech Author:Josh Hawley

“When the tech behemoths claim, as they routinely do, that they couldn’t exist without Section 230, they are only slightly exaggerating.

“Manipulative advertising based on personal characteristics is far from the passive distribution of third-party content Congress envisaged when it adopted Section 230 a quarter century ago. And behavioral ads drive many of tech platforms’ worst pathologies—the surveillance, the addiction race, the data pilfering.

Section 230 is the giant government subsidy on which Big Tech feeds and has built its empire.” PoliticsPowerCorruptionControlElitismJosh HawleyThe Tyranny Of Big TechBig TechSection 230 Author:Josh Hawley
