Sen. Elizabeth Warren unveiled a plan Friday to break up massive technology companies such as Amazon and Facebook, the clearest proposal yet in the 2020 presidential race to limit the growth of Silicon Valley.
div > div.group > p:first-child"> In a blog post, the Democratic candidate from Massachusetts wrote that she wants to make"big, structural changes to the tech sector to promote more competition." Those overhauls would include"breaking up" Amazon, Facebook and Google — companies that have come under scrutiny for both their protection of user data and consolidation of services such as e-commerce and digital advertising.
"Today's big tech companies have too much power — too much power over our economy, our society, and our democracy," Warren wrote."They've bulldozed competition, used our private information for profit, and tilted the playing field against everyone else. And in the process, they have hurt small businesses and stifled innovation.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, a Vermont independent running for president as a Democrat, has also repeatedly targeted Amazon by urging it to boost wages and benefits for workers.
Elizabeth, please just go home and crack open a beer with your hubby.
They have hurt small businesses and stifled innovation, around the world.
Chief Talking Bull is at it again.
Warren is clueless she needs to put a sock in it , big tech is driving jobs and innovation into the next few decades.
I agree with Warren on this
I'd start to targeting m&a in the finance and insurance industries first.
Counterpoint:
God help me for saying so ... but I like her plan. At least its intent.
Senseless thinking. How about focus on the banks that have been allowed to become monopolies...?
Crazy
Not sure what good breaking up these companies will do. I’m assuming her argument is each could be viewed as a monopoly in their industry. 🤯
Guess she’s finally moved on from Wells Fargo!
Insane. They’re only big because people wanted to use their services.
And if that happens even more companies will know our privacy
😱
Regardless of how I feel I just want to say the Democrats are impressing me with how bold they’ve become. Bold and accountable. That’s also super impressing me too. During Obama it was hard finding accountability when it came to certain issues.
This is great great great mews Now Zuckerburg will show his spite and turn his resources against her as will others MAGA ITS what potus is all about Not SOCIALISM
Getting tired of hearing this Green New Deal garbage... Its nothing more than a big ass scam with a pretty bow... Underneath, it's a pig trap.. Check it out - - -
Stupid. Really stupid. She will never win. Too radical. That’s the same way they wanted to breakup Microsoft years ago. These companies are our greatest strength
More socialism
Sure -- as long as ewarren and the other Dems agree not to use big tech / social media to promote their presidential campaigns. Yeah, that's what I thought.
Really what this is all about is forcing AWS, Kubernetes and Azure to a common platform.
Breaking up the phone company ended up being a Good Thing. And I’m no Communist.
So free market, capitalism, and Innovation are only really good until they work, create success, and profitability. Then we need to break them up. Yeah, that’ll happen. Super helpful, Senator. NOT!!! ewarren
Warren is mentally challenged. Grandstanding and pandering is all she has. What platform does she have
SenWarren & now that we have Elderfraud from TheJusticeDept no doubt Senator Warren will review the documents I mailed to her office regarding AT&T & I tweeted the link. ps. Senator Warren has a campaign page on $fb Slim.
And out of order, came Chaos, if it’s not broken don’t fix it.
hater
That would do what? Already did that with the phone company resulted in big expensive mess we are still paying for👿💩👹👺🤡
Why doesn’t she sell her $5M mansion and give those $’s away first? You know - mean what you say and say what you mean
She won’t be president anyhow
tyrannosaurx Good. It’s time. The damage to smaller businesses has got to stop. Big box, whether online or brick and mortar, takes up too much oxygen.
As she post this on the social media!
They are looking to tear down, pull apart..who or what are they putting in to replace what they remove? Their ideas are grounded on idealistic ideologies not wisdom or good common sense since their actions won't be furthering any worthy cause(s).
“I told you so!” Bill Gates
Typical lefty who thinks they’re somehow better able to live people’s lives, than they can live their own, so they will change the rules to accommodate their ‘thoughts’! Sadly history shows that whenever you monkey up the works you cause more problems than you solve! A BIG NOPE!
All about power with her - make her CEO of one and she will change her tune. She is playing to a crowd. Telling them what they have been told is right by underlying special interests - should believe 25% what she says - speaks w/forked tongue.
Sound initiative. Separation of Structure and Flow- platforms and content is crucial to long term competitive vitality of markets. Structures should be integrated up to a limit. Content flow should be differentiated-not integrated.
Just no..no! Government overreach is dangerous. I am not happy with some of what the larger tech conpanies engage in, but overreaching the not the free market way.
Break tech, break economy, pay higher wages, compete globally, pay higher taxes... Dems slogans, vote common sense
What
Some of these companies are so huge and unwieldy their own CEO's can barely control them.
Nimrod
What's the matter with the demos these days, giants like Amazon &tech companies are and will be prevailing as lifebuoy for the US economy and American existance to be more precise.
US Congress need bring antitrust legislation.
See she not even trying to run for real for real! Destroying her campaign before it even starts.
Come on now - if opposition is bad as the orange man who will people elect
She’s no more Native American than FB is a monopoly...
All democRATS is loving China. Including Obama too. She is horrible
Never building or inspiring anything, just taxing them or tearing them down.
The Schoolmarm! FakeIndian
The Convention of states looks to break up big government. This will keep oversight and remove overreach. Ask your candidates if they support this and vote accordingly. tt: marklevinshow
Control control control....you will submit to our control over your lives and like it!
Man, she's never happy with anything. Typical Socialist who wants to control, control, control.
Is she trying to make US into China?
LIES!!!!
Warren is not a creator of anything.
Hey Liz...
She is so desperate. Go away
Now that’s a real winning strategy.
meanwhile Bezos to Zuckerberg:
These companies aren’t monopolies!!!! Quit trying to cause issues
Bye Felicia
She now has profgalloway´s vote secured.
😂😂😂😂😂
Dumb sqaw.
What will this accomplish? Nothing. It's symbolic, like everything else Democrats do these days.
Yea good luck with that lol
