Elon Musk, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio.

Happy Tuesday. Here’s your Tuesday Tech Drop, the past week’s top stories from the intersection of politics and the seemingly all-inclusive world of technology.

Musk’s ‘war’ on free enterprise

(The free enterprise is not so free.)

Elon Musk is propelling House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan’s war on private enterprise. On Tuesday, Musk announced a lawsuit and, in a post on X, declared “war” against a coalition of advertisers known as the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM), which uses its collective power to prioritize investing in companies that align with what they feel are issues of import. Jordan previously used his role as Judiciary chairman to accuse companies in GARM of illegally colluding against conservatives over their choice not to advertise on some controversial conservative platforms. Musk’s lawsuit cites Jordan’s investigations, and in posts online he claimed companies could be guilty of racketeering for choosing not to advertise on X after he took over, which was a period in which advertisers fled from X due to the platform being rife with hate speech.

Just like this article is streamed by a leftie who is mad because Jordon/Musk are calling their hand on their misdeeds.

The problem is that Musk is trying to save free enterprise from those who seek control of it.

We do have to admit that the tech companies have been at war with the American people since Obama. They have had us over a barrel since they control the INTERNET. We have to have more than the internet to live with and in the world. A good example was when a certain part of the internet went down a few weeks ago – the world stopped running. That should tell everyone that we are playing STUPID by putting all of our eggs in one basket (the internet).

We have to have more than one way to run our business and our lives or better still – there are evil doers in the world who are trying to control it.

It is time to name those who are against freedom and move on by doing something about it instead of waiting for them to make us slaves.

DON’T PUT ALL OF YOUR EGGS IN THE INTERNET BASKET. Mix up your business by doing things the old way. The internet is not reliable. It is called control. Don’t be lazy.

Prove to the public that the internet is reliable and free?
