Americans overwhelmingly agree that Big Tech has become too powerful, especially in politics
w surveys by pollster Scott Rasmussen show U.S. voters' changing views on Big Tech companies, including that they have become too powerful.
According to the results for one poll, 68% of voters believe "it is more important to ensure that social media companies operate fairly rather than protecting the companies from government interference."
That figure fits hand-in-glove with the results of a second poll in which 78% of respondents said they believe Big Tech companies like Twitter, Google and Facebook could swing the results of an election to favor their preferred candidate.
To that end, 47% of voters believe Big Tech companies actively supported now-President Joe Biden during the last election cycle. Even among Democrats, that view was held by a 3-1 margin. Just 10% believe Big Tech companies worked to support Donald Trump, Rasmussen found.
As Congress and the courts continue to grapple with Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, regarding whether Big Tech is responsible for third-party content, 63% of American voters say that because of the special protections the law currently affords Big Tech platforms, those companies should be required to abide by the First Amendment.
Among participants who said social media is "very Important" in their life, 75% want to see Big Tech companies provide free speech guarantees to their users.

COULD - heck they already did
The real collusion has always been between the Dems and the MSM and Social Media.
Don't forget the Chicoms and the Iranians.
Setting themselves up for payback. It’s gonna be awesome.
Judges see this. And it was today that PDJT filed his class action. If Congress won’t do anything about oligarch-protection in Section 230, maybe the courts will.
Yep, it started in 2008.
Yep
And who thinks the government would make them play fair? They would put the hammer down on any conservative outlet.
Would be nice to see the giant crumble Wouldn't be the first time.
FOOLS!!!! Still thinking that there will be “actual” “elections” from here on. How many times do you have to be screwed before you realize you are gonna get screwed? “actual elections” are OVER! That notion is DONE, DEAD, DECEASED, FINISHED...
And yet, supposedly, 49% of the sheeple approve of the Joe Xiden regime which was installed into office by Big Tech.
