Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Google CEOS will all be testifying on Capitol Hill this afternoon. Should be fun. #NexstarDC
Tech Hearing w/ Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos and others is delayed...Apparently everything’s running slow. A source tells me the tech CEOs have recommended logging off, restarting and trying again #NexstarDC
Tech CEOs are all zoomed up and ready to go #NexstarDC
Simply put, these #tech firms have too much power. They’re destroying small businesses... in many cases there’s no alternative -@RepCicilline on Facebook, Amazon, Google, Apple #NexstarDC
Tim Cook, Jeff Bezos, Sundar Pichai all referenced or offered condolences to John Lewis during their testimony #NexstarDC
Zuckerberg says when companies like FB or Amazon buy up smaller companies in a variety of fields, they don’t eliminate competition. He says now Amazon competes with grocery stores, now FB competes with phone companies. The room looks skeptical #NexstarDC
GOP members accuse Facebook/Google of suppressing conservative speech. Rep. Sensenbrenner asked about @DonaldJTrumpJr’s recent video removed from social. Zuckerberg says propagating hydroxychloroquin as a proven cure when it’s not can be harmful (this happened on Twitter btw)
Will you take the pledge that Google will not adopt bigoted anti-police policies. -Rep Matt Gaetz #nexstarDC
“In many cases there’s no escape from surveillance because there’s no alternative. People are stuck with bad options.” -@davidcicilline #NexstarDC
