Is this news to anyone at Google or Facebook or Apple? I wager that those three companies combined spend a large sum of money in all the world’s capitols in order to influence regulations.

Not to mention Bezos purchased washingtonpost, powell ( steve jobs wife ) bought the atlantic and soong ( a bio/tech doctor ) bought the LA Times.

Tech is not only investing heavily in politics/lobbying, it's also buying up news.
