CEOs Of ********, Twitter, Google Set To Be Grilled At Senate Hearing

[Procta]

Anyone wanna die of boredom watching people who dont know anything about tech question tech CEOs?

********'s Mark Zuckerberg, Twitter's Jack Dorsey, and Google's Sundar Pichai will be virtually testifying Wednesday morning before a congressional committee about Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act that shields social media companies from liability over what content users post.

The hearing titled, "Does Section 230's Sweeping Immunity Enable Big Tech Bad Behavior?" - will begin at 10:00 a.m. A handful of Republican senators are expected to grill the three tech CEOs for their blatant anti-conservative bias.

is this when republicans act tough on tv and then completely do nothing and take more money from big tech

[DukeOfWoodBerry]

Boring. The time for talk is over.

Again? What’s the point if nothing ever happens?

[JUSA]

Can not wait for these Republicans, who all accept donations from Google, to really go after big tech. Should be a great show.

Jim Jordan will be in great form, he'll get really upset and yell and I'm sure make for some great soundbytes. And then do nothing. He'll cash his check, of course. I mean, like he told Tucker, if they want to give him money that's not his business. He'll take it!

Jack looking radicalized lol

Waste of time.

Zuckerberg will be fine, he's used to this by now

If you make billions a year and these peasants making 200k a year are there to "grill" you, you would laugh in their face knowing you have them by the balls. All the politicians are compromised. The politicians officially make the same as an average pleb developer at one of these tech giants, only from their "side gigs" they get paid many more times than the 200k the tax payers pay them.

If a standard congressman or senator gets 200k from uncle sam and 500k to 5 million from outside interest, who do they work for? The government is their side gig. If your side gig was in conflict with your money maker, whose side do you take?

Please tell us where the dems have ever followed through with action after a hearing.

Dems and repubs do not like social media giants for their own reasons. Even though Google, ******** and Twitter are massively to the left.

***Nothing ever comes from these hearings except for grandstanding.

Cory Gardner: "So, somebody denies the Holocaust has happened is not misinformation?"

Jack Dorsey: "It's misleading information, but we don't have a policy against that type of misleading information."



u wot m8?

[scheal]

I agree. But I got banned for saying so.

It's clear we can't change the cult's mind so there really is only one way to solve this problem. Everyone knows it but is too scared to say it.

People like you can't be convinced to abandon your racism. There is only one way to destroy the deranged racists, antiscientific Lysenkoist religious nutjobs, and qanon supporting fringe that threaten this country.

**** off wincel

Vigin *******

[JMath]

Can't wait to see Zuckerbergs faux shocked deer in a headlights look when he's questioned.


Congress: "Does the app keeps tabs on people and sell their data?"
Zuck: "whhhhaaatttt? Nooo. Why would you ever think that? We make most of our revenue from ads! Huh? We don't even have access to that! What the heck kind of question is that?"

[scheal]

Go Ted

Thank god for people like Ted Cruz

[AlBHappy]

Ted Cruz is going in desert dry on Jack Dorsey. Absolutely ridiculing him.

Go Ted

[nin-com-poop]

Jack looking radicalized lol

That's a mild look if you were going to walk the Portland streets.

Those same politicians team up on someone that doesn't play ball with the ones being paid off by the billionaires.

[Underwrought]

Go Ted

Oh fukk yeah I love political theater where do nothing repubs get nothing actually done! GO team!

[bpatel82]

Hate to say this, but these CEOs don't seem like they're afraid of these hearings. Twitter still has NY Post locked out and I don't think Jack will let them post anything unless they delete the tweet.

who gives a chit what democrats do.

republicans in office been doing this for YEARS. make a big spectacle on tv, and keep taking money from big tech and prevent from any actual changes going down. democrats are *******s, thats expected. republicans are being cucks.

[GordonXXX]

OMG this part is great!!! -

Go Ted

He did, but Dorsey was completely unrustled because he knows nothing is going to happen from all this.

[Mark1T]

Is there a good reason why Jack Dorsey logged on looking like a Taliban jihadist?

And I am not sure how you fix that. Some thoughts:

- only public funds for campaigns
- vow of poverty/must divest all assets to hold office
- mandatory "retirement" on the government dime post service

I agree. But I got banned for saying so.

Not sure how someone can claim intelligence and yet fail to see that this is just a sideshow, a distraction from the main event.

Politicians suck.

[puzzycrookz]

From the tone of these Big Tech CEOs they seem pretty confident that it’s pretty impossible to repeal Section 230 and that will never happen. Why is that the case?

[EternaLovE]

He did, but Dorsey was completely unrustled because he knows nothing is going to happen from all this.

unless trump wins the re-elect and repeals the 230, then its goodbye twitter, google, ********...etc.

[TaeBoNinja]

Go Ted

Thank god for people like Ted Cruz

Eh, Cruz is great at great-standing, but just this week he downplayed the Hunter Biden story.
