@AngelNDevil2 @ElectroCar If you’re colluding this stupidly, you deserve to go to jail. But most people aren’t this stupid https://t.co/xIcBHsGOnZ — PolitiTweet.org

@AngelNDevil2 @ElectroCar Great! You found one person who pled guilty over a decade ago because he colluded with other shipping execs using gmail. That case led to almost 25 percent of incarcerations that year. Now let’s look at the same report you cited earlier and see if the enforcement is a deterrent https://t.co/ajs0g9ZaJv — PolitiTweet.org

My mom has sent me so many Redfin links to houses in the Chicago burbs that the algo keeps completely going for it and recommending Michael Jordan’s old house, which has been on the market for years. I am flattered though https://t.co/tgfsfdwLeU — PolitiTweet.org

That means competing to overcome those limitations is also about business deals and lobbying, not innovation. That feels… bad? — PolitiTweet.org
