from the wheels-of-justice-"with-a-computer" dept.

Facebook is only 15 years old, yet in that time it has become the world's dominant social media platform, boasting more than 2.4 billion users. It has also become the world's second-largest digital advertising platform, effectively the runner-up in a worldwide duopoly dominated by Google. Now, it is under a baker's dozen of investigations alleging that it rose to the top by using unfair, anticompetitive tactics—and at least one competitor kept records.

Snap, parent company of Snapchat, kept a dossier "for years" detailing Facebook's attempts to thwart it, sources told The Wall Street Journal.

The Department of Justice publicly confirmed that its antitrust division was actively investigating widespread "concerns that consumers, businesses, and entrepreneurs have expressed" about "market-leading online platforms." The agency didn't name names, but that list of "market-leading" platforms is generally considered to include Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and Google.

The wheels of justice may move slowly, but here's hoping the "with a computer" companies find that they do work.

    Check out this pending story that not even soylent will approve or deny. But why? Will I get an answer? Starting to wonder.....

    Same shiz, 'cloud platform' owners covertly using their admin power to ideologically and commercially guide us non-zionist plebes, using their 'key positions' to exert covert paramilitary mafia power over civilians.

    Funny, last time I heard someone compared to Voldemort it was Epstein, and him and Zuckerborg are on the same team, see the zuck's cult hoodie with the jewish star.

    Not all jewish people are in on it, obviously, but a lot of them sure are and if they aren't on record against this cult shit, you have to assume that they fully approve of what they are doing to the united states with Trump, their stooge. And, of course, 9/11.

    I am now calling it "Epsteining". Def: Powerful Jewish Zionists and their lackeys subverting the function of the United States(and others) government and society, especially exhibiting blindness towards the crimes of jewish people and the existance of a jewish mafia that abuses and trafficks children, while of course misdirecting attention away from their crimes and exagerating anything done to them, using the cover of classical antisemitism to present themselves as above reproach'

    In a sentence, 'Yeah, Barr is epsteining yet another investigation." "Yeah, Dershowitz totally epsteined that girl."
