Who hates Big Tech? ft. Alec Stapp

Why are there so many proposals to break up Big Tech, and what impact would that have?  PPI's Director of Technology Policy Alec Stapp joins the podcast to discuss the recent antitrust bills in Congress aimed at the biggest tech companies in the US.  We discuss which bills make sense and which don't, what members of congress don't seem to get about platforms, how these bills would impact foreign policy, and what's really driving the animus towards tech firms.
