Twitter confirms to me it's permanently banned Project Veritas (and temporarily locked James O'Keefe's account) for what the platform says is repeated violations of the company's anti-doxxing policies. — PolitiTweet.org

And with Dems in congressional control (albeit with a razor-thin margin), they now have an opportunity to pass a more sweeping antitrust agenda. Recall @RepCicilline’s 2020 Big Tech report — it had big ideas, not all of which Republicans liked (eg Glass-Steagall for tech). — PolitiTweet.org

The bill also proposes new Clayton Act language to bar exclusionary conduct, also to be judged under an “appreciable risk” standard. Lots more, too — some post-merger transparency stuff, calls to eliminate “unnecessary” market definition requirements, creating new govt offices. — PolitiTweet.org

Flips the burden of proof onto companies for certain mergers — for example, deals over $5bn & purchases of nascent rivals. It would be on the companies to prove their deals do NOT create an “appreciable risk” of reducing competition, rather than on the govt to prove they do. — PolitiTweet.org
