The 2010s also saw the rise of the new antitrust movement — also called the New Brandeis movement — which made Big Tech its main target. This approach didn’t win many victories against Big Tech in court — U.S. antitrust law doesn’t leave any room for breaking companies up for political reasons. I believe that Americans embraced Big Tech — and tolerated the vast fortunes of techno-industrialists — because they liked the tech itself. No amount of Big Tech money or Marc Andreessen blog posts is going to stop this backlash. Unfortunately, the anti-tech movement, out of a poverty of ideas, is currently steering us in the latter direction.
