Five things to know about the Big Tech antitrust report
Read full article: Five things to know about the Big Tech antitrust reportAfter years of calling Big Tech too big, Democratic lawmakers are calling for Congress to rein in Facebook, Google, Amazon and Apple by breaking them up, limiting future mergers and blocking self-dealing that could hurt competitors. Those proposals are in a 450-page report issued Tuesday by a House antitrust panel, which undertook a 15-month investigation into the companiesโ market dominance. The report found that Google holds a monopoly in search and that Facebook has monopoly power in social networking. But it merely said that Amazon and Apple have โsignificant and durable market powerโ in, respectively, the U.S. online retail market and mobile operating systems and app stores. ANOTHER REPORTThough the report was โbipartisan,โ Republicans issued their own thoughts Tuesday in a report titled โA Third Way to Take on Big Tech.โ Authored by Rep. Ken Buck of Colorado, it called for โtargetedโ enforcement of existing antitrust laws rather than โonerous and burdensome regulation that kills industry innovation.โ It's not hard to guess which option Big Tech would get behind if forced to choose.
Netflix's โCutiesโ becomes target of politicized backlash
Read full article: Netflix's โCutiesโ becomes target of politicized backlashThe backlash to the French independent film โMignonnes,โ or โCuties,โ started before it had even been released because of a poster that went viral for its provocative depiction of its young female actors. At the heart of the backlash is the idea that โCutiesโ is dangerously and irresponsibly sexualizing pre-teen girls, which, ironically, is what the movie itself is criticizing too. She becomes fascinated with a clique of rebellious girls at her middle school who choreograph dance routines and wear crop tops and heels. Netflix acquired โCutiesโ out of the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year where it was favorably reviewed and won an award for its direction. โOur girls see that the more a woman is overly sexualized on social media, the more she is successful.
