Literally every YouTuber I know has issues with YouTube giving copyright claims to people that don't actually own the content. Many are musicians getting copyright claims on their own original content.

Do we actually expect these inept politicians that benefit from the profits from these corporations to change the way they do business???

When is ebay facing this committee?
I sold a brand new PC part on ebay that I had still in the bubble wrap for two years listed as returns not accepted. The seller clearly knew nothing about computers and tried to use incompatible memory. Ebay forced me to accept a return leaving me £25 out of pocket. I'm only an occasional private seller.

What are the real consequences from these 'congressional hearings'? I always saw them as rich-people court

Ms. Scanlon sounded like she was bought by large broadcasting companies. Google already have an incentive to make money off streaming movies. There's a movie rental in their play store and on YouTube. On top of that if it wasn't for these large platforms small and low budget independent creator will never get a chance to distribute their contents.

The iCloud alert question is a red herring (although the same could be said the same about this whole hearing) — you get an alert to upgrade your iCloud storage when your free 5gb storage is used up, which happens quickly. There is no conspiracy- you can turn off iCloud and use other apps like amazon photos, or the whole google ecosystem.

I’m sure they have all seen a drop in revenue since the man they all hate has been band from their platform, I hope it hurts them. All these platform would be wonderful if they were not political or fair to all.

Cryptocurrency prices are notoriously volatile and it might be too early to tell whether the latest dip marks the start of a reversal of the 2021 bull market, or if it's just a correction on the way to new all time highs.The one area of concern is that the move lower has seen crypto assets fall out of its multi week ascending channel, turning the technical outlook from positive to neutral. While the long term growth of digital assets still looks strong, the short term correction has increased panic in the market.

These people don’t know any of the answers . These guys talk in circles.. And these were their smart one’s!!!!

God forbid you use Monopoly laws for what they were intended.. just let Walmart take over everything
