Posted on 20th Jun 2022 11:33 am by rohit kumar

The government and regulatory agencies in India are cracking down on the anti-competitive practices of big tech companies through new IT rules, amendments, and lawsuits, while laws are being brought in America too. To avoid them, Google, Amazon, Apple, etc. have started lobbying with US senators. Their CEOs are spending crores on increasing mail from senators.

 

 

Democrat MP Amy Klobuchar and others recently said they had secured the necessary votes in the Senate for a new bill to keep the market competitive. If this bill is passed, then Google will not be able to give a ranking of its related businesses especially restaurants or YouTube links above other websites in the US.

Due to this, the CEOs of the companies have lost their sleep.

According to tech companies, this bill will prevent many features from being available to consumers. This will affect the services of the company. Instead of making people's lives better, it will create trouble.

Organizations working to raise awareness of the bill want a vote in the next few weeks. It is necessary to break the monopoly that companies have established in the last decade by eliminating everything from small traders to open competition.
