Elon is a nazi pedo.

More options in the videohosting space would good.

I realised a lot of my yt usage was for having something playing in the background. I’ve been listening to more podcasts and audiobooks instead and it’s been pretty easy to cut back.

The EU currently has stronger Anti-Trust laws than the North American countries so most a lot of what is public comes from their courts.

This wiki is a good start.

The case with Mozilla is the most obvious in terms of funding direct competition to maintain the semblance of competition with Chrome. Google really dislike adblockers so they’ve been throwing their weight around with Mozilla and the HTML5 protocols (as best I understand it) to prevent people from using adblockers in the future.

One of the first instances that I can recall was when Google acquired Youtube. There were critics who worried about the lack of competition in video hosting. Google assured legislators that things were fine because they still had Google Video at the time. Controlling those two allowed them to dominate the video hosting space. Google video was eventually phased out, with hosting being diverted to Youtube.

IIRC Google were also throwing their weight around when it came to buying up portions of the wireless spectrum in the US. Again, to prevent other, smaller organizations from gaining a foothold in the mobile industry (they made deals with providers who carried their phones, iirc.

These are mostly off the top of my head from watching their practices over the last 20 years or so there may be corrections to all of this.

Sorry for not having more direct sources for you but I will continue looking for some and will update when I get a chance.

Edit: Another open-source example is Google’s investment in ‘Accelerated Mobile Pages’ - this is what I was referring too when I said google wants Webtraffic directed through them.

She’s just another grifter who sided with Trump when it benefitted her. Now’s she’s trying to benefit from their disassociation. Like all those former Trump staffers who have “seen the light” and are who are now MSNBC pundits selling their books on TV.

In a lot of cases (like Mozilla), they supported these efforts to legally maintain their monopoly over digital services.

Google is an ad company, they are using their size and influence to redesign the rules of the internet to ensure their presence can’t be bypassed or controlled by the end user.

They want all internet traffic to go through them.

Burn Google (or Alphabet to start with) to the ground.

They were hinting at its use for that in this ad by showing a young child right away.

Who cares

Stop using Musk’s products.

More worried the US is spying on me than China at this point.

Please stop using Musk’s products. He’s a Nazi.

Staged to bring in the National Guard. Release the files.

Musk offered to father her children. This was probably done deliberately.

I don’t mean free from operating costs. I mean free for the person using it to experience it how they choose.

Ads on websites are deals the sitemaker made with themselves. The internet is free.

How do they measure the difference between partial and full meltdowns?

Rss feeds to download the mp3. VLC to play them. I like to relisten to some series so building a library makes it easy.
