Greetings from Germany.
Don’t worry, we’d rather send him to prison.
Dating isn’t the real world just like the internet isn’t — it’s only part of what we see about a person!
@Andy If you’re looking for love discrediting look no further than a social app! I’m over it — I’d rather provide them with false reckon! Give them the bird and be on with my life!
If you consider dating to be like an aerobics class where you have to teach a man the moves then online dating is for you!
I have a simple test “I bombard men with texts to make them think I’m desperate — if a man can’t get passed that one simple test they are no good for the long haul.
Alleged…Lol, Have i gone blind.
Let the govt take over google, facebook, twitter and all forms of media. Its a national security issue, and its socialist, so the idiots for socialism and the dems and repubs should be ok with it.
I like a grilled apple.
We should do away with all large companies in America. It’s time we let our government run everything so we can redistribute wealth.
Common Sense
We see what you are trying there…
the anti-trust laws were brought in to counter
the railroad barons buying up their smaller competitors
with a view to monopolizing freight services and costs to maximize profits
so of course there were no thoughts given to future communication industry developments…
that didn’t stop them from being used in the early 30’s to break the monopolies
that the major Hollywood studios had over film distribution
or dismantling the big radio networks control over local licensees…
just because the specific terms aren’t in the laws doesn’t mean they can’t be used
to counter the almost total control the big four (fb google amazon apple) have
over “social media” (just another term for network)
dismantle and regulate
OR OR OR you are why I skip 6pm
The issue with these companies is that they gobble up competition with their deep pockets, whenever – if ever – one pops up. None of the examples they’ve given are direct competition to their core business models. None.
And thats why these corporations should be broken up, to make it harder for the individual pieces to keep real competition down.
Break them up
