That is sort of like this defining moment for them, you know, where they sort of realize that, wow, these companies really do have way too much power over free speech and the ability of Americans to express themselves. For a long time, everyone said, well, if you don't like the policies of Twitter or Facebook, go create your own.

So they tried to create their own with like Rumble and True Social and some of these other ones. And then the big tech companies just like didn't let people download them. And I think that sort of does help explain a little bit why big tech is sort of the focus it has. The other thing I'll say is some people have described it.

the Republican sort of hatred of big tech is like big tech is the gateway drug. It's sort of like the way that they get interested in antitrust. Because here are these companies that are having such an impact on the economy. And from there, they sort of get more interested sometimes in the power of other companies.

I think that's very true, at least for now. We'll sort of see. But I think maybe, you know, as I was saying, the Fox News mad libs, like Fox News, you know, viewers really don't like the big tech companies. This has been like true for a very long time.

So to hear all of these Donald Trump appointees say that they're finally going to go after them and do something and maybe even break them up, I sort of think is probably appealing.

That was an objection that a lot of people had to the antitrust bills that were being considered in 2021 and 2022 and then died, is that we were making these rules that were only going to apply to one sector of the economy, where generally we have rules, at least in antitrust, that apply broadly. That isn't true. When antitrust isn't working, people come up with regulations.

And I mean, that was the entire creation of the FCC and telecom regulation in the late 1990s. So... I think part of the thing is we've just done no regulation whatsoever, really, of the internet economy up to this point.
