Cruz was putting on a disingenuous show for right wing audiences. This was a waste of time and further demeans the procedure, and congress.

Those hearings are also used to get representatives of these organizations on the record. Cruz certainly asked pointed questions, albeit driven by his political interest.

I'm still surprised how unprepared and naïve Jack seems to be for these kinds of procedures. The NYPost article in question and the entire account is still blocked to this day. I can only assume that they squashed it in such a way that they cannot recover it anymore. I know people find a GOP election win unlikely (Not including me), but he is doing his investors a great disservice by not being prepared for a landslide GOP win that could transform Sec 230 greatly.

I'm torn between HN rules that we shouldn't talk politics, & Ted talking BS tech out his bunghole. He's making his hamfisted politics a mortal threat to tech (and sowing rabid dissent & unrest).
