My take on this: the stock market tanked, us congress and senate members already sold all their stocks, and now they told the FTC it's safe to go after big tech.

Interesting idea but wouldn’t stocks and companies being weak incite further protectionism rather than the opposite?
Not if they're shorting the hell out of them.
shorting stocks is a full time job, so congress PEOPLE as much as they would like to can't do it and still go to work.
