"Bill Gates and Paul Allen founded Microsoft with a vision for putting a personal computer on every desk." No its more like Gates and Allen had a vision for pirating CP/M.
Its another gold rush, this time for telemetry data that marketing and espionage pays dollars for.
This sounds terrible, eating more beans does not resolve the issue as it ignore political and economic factor so is reduced to something the "The end is nigh". With that many people eating beans human flatulence will almost certainly replace bovine.
The easy part is saying we need to do it, whatever IT is. The largest polluters in the world are still ramping up as their economies rise and their governments have no real interest in this except as an economic weapon. Then there is getting it down to the street.

If memory serves the 1918 flu killed so many because of dehydration. This strain caused massive fevers and someone who was alive the night before could be dead by morning.
Assuming that someone has not smashed everything up they will have all of the ambiance of the originals, the smell and urine, the visual impact of puke and graffito but none of the privacy.
The US government, unfortunately has a history of vendettas against those who defy those in in power. Some examples include Assange, Mitnick, Dillinger and Bonnie and Clyde.
There is no such thing as globalization. That term would imply that it was a two way street. What is often called Globalization is just money and technology going from West to East.
This kind of thing is representative of what has happened to cryptocurrency since the banking hedonists have gotten into it. Besides cowboy hats really piss people off. (Though Cowboy Neil makes people happy).
If Facebook is going after pics it thinks are posted by Russian hackers what about the ones posted by hackers from China, Vietnam, Israel, etc?
It was a nice way to slip in the Russian hacker thing. The DNC has been looking for Russian hackers since Hillary complained about them. One wonders why Hillary did this since she had a lot ob business dealings with Putin's Russia during here SOS stint so why would they want to hack her campaign?
One would think the Russian hackers would want Hillary and friends to win since the Clinton's were so close to Putin. Doing highly paid speaking engagement and helping contract through the system in the US.
There have been all sorts of studies that show that 4, tens makes more sense than 5 eights especially if you can stagger the odd day. A four day work week can increase productivity and reduce traffic, stress, etc. No one will do them though because why would execs want to pay for a 10 hour day when they are already getting more than that for free out of most workers in the US.
Amazon receives 40% of online purchases and Bezos is supposed to be worth $159 billion and earns $275MM per day. All of that has to come from somewhere, right?
If it really pulling down a decent wage Actuarial science will be on the next hit list for South Asians and for outsourcing if it is not already. South Asians can do like what they did with tech certs and give everyone a passing grade and send them to the US.
M$ may say it is going to do this but when the raeg comes and Win 7 fanbois threaten to jump to Ubuntu will they be persuaded to do otherwise? Perhaps a ad-financed edition of Old Number 7?
We went to no, less tariffs and then went past that. The US subsidies the export of labor and manufacturing already. This is part of the reason why it is so "cheap" to send manufacturing to the PRC, Vietnam, etc. and to outsource. That also helps is that these countries basically have slave labor and no environmental considerations when it comes to dumping. Besides, US trading partners never really lowered their tariffs and played games with taxes so it became one way.

While that may be true in France in the US this would be like saying the 9 or so corporations that own all media outlets are the democracy.

I did not set the criterion but it still is true that if you have either nukes or space programs then you are not a developing nation.
When you have nuclear weapons and space program you are no longer a developing nation.

The PRC is not a good example.
Never mind the environmental disaster that was the Three Gorges Dam, in the PRC they have orange air, the highest particulate counts in the world and this:
Rare-earth mining in China comes at a heavy cost for local villages

What to do?
Democrats had over eight years to reign in Big Tech and now all of a sudden they see a problem?

I hate domain trolls but its nice to see the oligarchy taking care of its own.
A large connected and money interest always beats out the little guy.
It looks like M$ has completely given up and decided to become Alphabet.

Perhaps turnabout is fair play?
Besides, any country that has nuclear weapons and a space program should not be considered a developing country.

Since the public paid for and still is paying for the infrastructure one wonders how communications monopolies can decide the status of traffic.
