The real problem with YT (and Goggle) is that now they are using AI to censor comments that are intellectually critical. This is no way to conduct a free society. This is like a totalitarian party but of tech oligarchs. Speak up, people!

Maybe google has finally pushed back on the democrats and are spitting their dummy out, now wanting to teach google a lesson. Maybe if there is any truth to this opinion, google might finally flip and favour the Republicans as a FU to the left.

One judge can make a decision and breakup a company that just has a better search engine. Sure it’s gone downhill in recent years but Bing is unusable at least for me doing technical searches. MS introduced AI and years later hasn’t increased their market share.

I think this is just the DOJ playing politics, when they should be serving the Law and Justice.
Not all monopolies are bad, so the DOJ”s first move is to prove that the Google monopoly is “harmful” to the market. How is having a very useful and powerful search engine harmful to the market? Competition here is pointless if it’ll only introduce a bunch of less useful search engines and clutter up choices for consumers.
