Don't worry JD, this will sort itself out thanks to Zuckerberg and Musk driving people to alternative platforms.

That interview was interesting
She kept trying to get him to fall into traps or get angry but he was calm and respectful the entire time. This man is someone who can talk.
He lies and twists facts constantly. Plus he’s annoying as hell, for whatever that’s worth.

But his entire political career was purchased by big tech! Is he a malfunctioning robot or something?
"... too much more power than me"
Good cop bad cop?
Probably. If I were Vance, whether the Never Trump thing was genuine or I was just a power hungry asshole, I'd be positioning myself to look like the sane one in the administration so that I could remove Trump via the 25th in 2027 and be hailed as the guy who saved America from him. I'd also be egging Trump and Musk on to be as terrible as possible as publicly as possible.
"the big tech that we do not directly control has too much power". FFY
Especially couchdb. Couchdb needs to get back in the kitchen where she belongs.

In other words, he’s suggesting his pockets need a little more lining.
JD Vance says some tech companies won't play along with Proj. 2025.
wow, really?!
Can't be
Big tech.... Besides Google, Amazon, Facebook (meta group), twitter and Tesla.
Good thing those guys are all small fish. Lol /s
I agree with the statement Vance said about big tech having too much power, but when you look at who the president is cozying up to it sure doesn't look like he's going to be big on pulling power away from his new buddies.
We shall see though. Trump is a notorious loose cannon. He could random turn on them at any point.
Who would ever give a shit what these clowns think? How is this news?
Oh right we're violently controlled by these wackos...
Leopards are actively eating my face but it’s probably fine. In fact, I’ll give the leopards several billion dollars and then they’ll like me. God, I’m lonely. But the leopards are always there.
President Musk isn't going to like hearing that from you. Get back in your hole!
For those not interested in a 20-min interview of JD Vance... tldw summary?
I say that the executive branch has not been given the power to create laws or judge whether or not they are legal... but that seems to be what his administration has unilaterally decided is true now.
The laws are on the books. They should be implemented in good faith by the executive branch. This is not being done.
Good news! Something called DeepSeek apparently just dunked on your big tech by cutting the Nasdaq 3% and talking smack about your mothers.
