Its a government department signalling who's boss.

Are you seriously this delusional? THe leaders of tech firms operate at the behest of Trump. Not the other way round.

The end game is nationalisation lmao. How people cant see this is mad...

It wouldnt be the first time in history a govt has taken into their hands an organisation that is deemed too powerful.

Who cares who owns the data center? The govt can send in the army and nationalise it... Lol as if you really believe that a bunch of people will actually control everything and the govt wont?

Think harder.

The point youre making is important - these geeks have no clue where things will land. The only person Ive seen involved in technology that was pretty good at predicting was Steve Jobs. But he wasnt really a geek, more of a hippie - meaning he had an understanding of people and society. Amodei definitely does not.
