Ok, how is this not illegal? Buying up all the supply to prevent competitors from buying any, even when you can't use it yourself. There's gotta be some anticompetitive regulation that would cover this
Gonna need a functional government with a functioning regulatory body for that.
Edit: also, Congress seems to be able to just lasso anyone and pull them into a hearing to make a show of damn near anything. We could really use one of those for this (and many other) boondongles right now.
How could congress possibly keep white collar crime in check when they're already so busy enabling fascism?
(the same fascism which is also being bankrolled by those same tech oligarchs, by the way)
