No one who works in tech should be supporting these kind of initiatives or the people that come up with them. Yet looking around, it seems many people in tech don’t really understand what’s at stake.
Or they understand exactly what’s at stake, and that’s why they support plans like these.
If they just want to watch the world burn and slow our tech progress for decades, sure.
I guess for you the end justifies the means?
Far more people work in "small tech" than work in "big tech" and would either be unaffected or benefit from these initiatives.
Small size doesn’t make you safe, the negative will trickle down.
What if we believe that such a breakup will be hugely beneficial to stockholders and employees in the big tech companies, just like the breakup of Standard Oil and Bell was to theirs?
