Let's also imagine that the next president cares about monopolies and puts Lina Khan back in charge. I wonder if there's anything that they can do about decisions made by Trump's FTC. Or is Netflho just now legally in place and we're stuck with them unless the FTC can prove they're abusing their monopoly? permalink fedilink source parent [–] tuskyo@ttrpg.network 1 point 8 months ago The problem is stupid people giving them more money. permalink fedilink source parent
