Quoted: Google has threatened to remove its search engine from Australia over the nation's attempt to make the tech giant share royalties with news publishers. Australia is introducing a world-first law to make Google, Facebook and potentially other tech companies pay media outlets for their news content. But the US firms have fought back, warning the law would make them withdraw some of their services. Australian PM Scott Morrison said lawmakers would not yield to "threats". Australia is far from Google's largest market, but the proposed news code is seen as a possible global test case for how governments could seek to regulate big tech firms. Tech firms have faced increasing pressure to pay for news content in other countries, including France, where Google struck a landmark deal with media outlets on Thursday. In Australia, the proposed news code would tie Google and Facebook to mediated negotiations with publishers over the value of news content, if no agreement could be reached first. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-55760673 They don't have the balls. |

Never underestimate how stubborn an Australian in a self-righteous sook can get. |

big tech is totally fucked and they don't see it coming.
Commies are evil, not stupid, they saw the power that big tech had over President Trump. They won't allow that to happen to them. They'll be busted up and jailed and all kinds of shit within the year. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Good!! Australia should stand firm. In fact that should happen here too. This is exactly how competition is born Quote HistoryQuoted: Good!! Australia should stand firm. In fact that should happen here too. This is exactly how competition is born  Do you want to bail out CNN? Australia's news industry is struggling. Of every A$100 (56; $77) spent on digital advertising, A$81 goes to Google and Facebook. And Covid-19 has only made this worse. With companies reducing their digital advertising spend, a number of outlets in Australia have been forced to close. Google, by contrast, has been performing well. Last year the social media giant made almost $4bn from Australia, while paying $45m in tax. Meanwhile, Australia's competition watchdog has accused both Facebook and Google of misleading Australian consumers about how their data is used, launching inquiries into digital advertising and the app stores market.  "The college educated white man with a STEM degree and marketable skills have been doing very well financially during COIVD. Minorities with no education or marketable skills to speak of have been suffering. We must take Whitey's money." That's what's going on here. It not about Google. |
