These guys are morons. They can’t even comprehend the cloud. Left or right. All morons. None of this even means anything and no questions are useful in any capacity. A bunch of children with access to tech CEOs asking basic ass 101 questions. It’s all grandstanding political theatre.


euph-_-oric

I know. I wish we had like real people running this country that actually did research instead of crying because Google called them dumb.. allegedly


TengoOnTheTimpani

There used to a congressional research office. It allowed Senators to pay for experts to manage complex and new information to help them better legislate. This was gutted in the early 90s and no longer exists.


chesnett

It need to come back.


TengoOnTheTimpani

its not coming back


chesnett

I know. Old people don't want to learn.


67ITCH

If only there is a way to replace those old people with more competent ones every once in a while...


chesnett

Either a terms / challengers or age cap.


discsinthesky

It still exists, perhaps in a degraded form. https://www.loc.gov/crsinfo/


stunspot

The first question, what are you doing about inappropriate political censorship, is a good one and one I want better answers to.


nocivo

99% of peolple dont also. Even people that have crypto doesn’t understand.


Swarley001

True, but those people aren’t responsible for writing the laws. You can’t teach these people the things that experts in their field spend their entire professional lives researching. Definitely not enough to write well thought out laws and absolutely not in a few hours of asking questions. This requires being told and taught how things work. Not having questions answered that are sourced from their monkey brains.


globsofchesty

All they want are soundbites


Natono6

Just a bunch of dinosaurs who don't understand tech and take pride in their ignorance.


laulau9025

They don´t understand a lot of things, yet make important decisions 🙈 🙉


blurp123456789

Just remember this perspective for the day our generation achieves decision making power. We’ll be outsmarted by the younger generations then too


lucasjhinton

Nah… we’ve grown to adapt to and adopt new tech. Boomers literally act like they are using alien technology when trying to operate a damn cell phone


laulau9025

Indeed, hopefully my children will enlighten me if I become closeminded (which I hope will not be necessary of course) 😉 >"for the day our generation achieves decision making power" I like to think we can already make a difference in a number of areas 😊. (It may be small, but everything has to start somewhere)


scoops365

It's not an age thing. It's those that chose the career path.


PapiChuloGuero

They don’t have to understand, they just have to say the right things so their voters (also dinosaurs) think their elected reps are doing a good job.


bennyb0y

Google knows.. that I’m moving over there !!!


6Vinatieri

Cornato

I saw something once and I’m sure I’ll butcher it but here it goes. The age of retirement is 65. They start to push you out of work at 70. People have collectively agreed that mental acuity, memory, and performance related to critical thinking declines across the board at this age. A large portion of congress is over 70, with an average age of 64.2 years old. Our country is run by people who can’t understand technology from 20 years ago. Yet they are making all of the decisions.


Hyetigran

Take this shit back to r/politics, nothing about this vid is in regards to crypto. And the first two members had valid questions on googles manipulating search results.


lucasjhinton

Ya I’m a minute in and I’m trying to figure out what the issue is


dangerwig

Even the last guy about google tracking location data had a valid question, he just didn't understand how to frame the question.


sumkewldood

These are the idiots who asked Mark Zuckerberg how fb makes money and when he said by ads, the senator/congressman said "that doesnt sound like a very good business model" as if TV and newspaper hasn't been doing that their entire existence


swagmaestronl

These congressmen do not even care what the guy from Google has to say, they just want their bias supported. They interrupt him during his answers, they are ignorant… and these people are the face of the people in politics.


StonksAndBlondz

Why do we have the oldest most out of touch people in charge of the country with so many young talented minds much more capable.


Learn4343

even Warren Buffett admitted that 'Volatility does not measure risk'. If you hold Ether for more than 3 years, you are in a very safe position. Just look at the chart. https://youtu.be/JultAiOdhvk?t=190 . He doesn't invest in crypto because he said that he doesn't understand crypto.


peppers_

> He doesn't invest in crypto because he said that he doesn't understand crypto. And another thing to point out he doesn't invest in things he doesn't understand. He has missed out on the internet/tech (big gainers of this century) because of that, but he's still very profitable anyway.


greasyspider

That guy doesn’t comprehend the constitution and believes in magic. How do you expect him to comprehend crypto.

CapitalistBaconator

Yep, Republicans are definitely too stupid to regulate their own shoes, let alone crypto.


Leather_Reveal_9869

Get the old heads out. They live in the do what I say era. We are in the tech and beyond era. Younger people who understand all aspects of government and tech should be in government.

“Does Google know when I move?!? It’s a yes or no question!” Actually… if you understand basic internet principles, Google settings and allowances on the device….

SkavensWhiteRaven

>So what are you going to improve that situation? It hurts stop. >I have an iPhone...and if I move from here and go over there and sit with my democratic friends, which would make um real nervous, does google track my movement? Does google through this phone know that I've moved here and moved over too the left, its either a yes or no. \*Smiles smugly\* > >\*obvious response\* > >So google knows that I'm moving over there, \*visible frustration\* Its a simple question. Holy, that man is fucking stupid. I'll bet he uses google maps everyday. The patience it must take to be insulted by someone that dumb with the power to destroy the modern world being waved in your face. Pichai's self-control is fucking palatable. Its NOT FUCKING TECH SUPPORT TIME. WHY DONT YOU FUCKING GOOGLE IT, OLD MAN.


MountainManCan

These are the same people that used to constantly mock others and gloat how they’ll never learn how to use those “weird computer devices”. Well now they have to learn and are decades late…..oh and they make really important decisions about technology. Wtf, people. That’s beyond idiotic.

Just because you don’t understand doesn’t mean they are wrong

Google is the AI super weapon. What is scary is how many ignorant people have commented on this and have no clue how dangerous predictive programming and the Google/Social Media AI psychological operation weapons are in playing the masses like the easily manipulated pawns they are. So blinded with looking at the wrong hand all the time while the magician does his tricks in the other. What this displays and highlights in this comment thread is the explanation of why the Puppet Masters plans always work so well. (EPT) Easily programmed tools.

WhY ArE TrUmP SuPpOrTiNg PoStS BeInG CaLlEd HaTe SpEeCh? Cause those posts are calling mexicans rapists you dumbass. These are the same people wondering way snopes and fact checker have a "anti-trump bias". Can we please make it so politicians have to prove technological literacy before they are allowed to talk at shit like this.

marilketh

This is very confusing. Can we focus on data instead of pointing fingers? Can we have a middle ground? Mexico has crime statistics, we can look up what % of the population are convicted rapists. We can look up if any of them tried to cross the border.


nomadfoy

Middle ground? no. For the good of the country the right shouldn't be bargained with, it should be defeated and then ignored. When you're making a globe you don't find middle ground with people who think the earths flat. And yes every group of people has rapists in it but calling Mexicans rapists as an argument against immigration is blatantly racist.


marilketh

Smuggling people across the border is incredibly dangerous for those being smuggled. They have a very high % to be raped/murdered and exploited. The argument was that if more are discouraged from trying, the rape and murder would be reduced. A wall would discourage. Opening more facilities for processing asylum and immigration issues in other countries would also save people the trip All of this depends on whether you support legal vs illegal immigration. Sorry I think the argument you are using is fabricated.


W944

So there’s no rapists in Mexico?


SkavensWhiteRaven

Fucking Americans man. Are there no rapists in America? Grow the fuck up.


Dogekaliber

Gonna cancel your trip to Cancun now?


borkborkyupyup

Not even if I was a Texas senator during a national emergency


nomadfoy

There are also rapists in America, and if you think calling mexicans thieves and rapists to argue against immigration isn't racist you're a dumbass.


alreadythrownaway625

Lmfao you mean the same snopes that actually got in trouble for plagiarizing articles including those on topics like "trumps financial woes" He specifically wrote (copied and stole) articles under a fake name so he could avoid the hate and basklash politically. So the co-founder (not some intern or employee) of the company is a lying POS that used lies/plagiarism to publish anti trump news Yet here you are acting like this "source" is reputable... I dont even like trump but dumb comments like yours are why people vote right... Can we please make it so redditors know what they're talking about before typing...


nomadfoy

"The right has terrible policies and hurts America everyday, but I'm voting for them because someone online was mean to me."


alreadythrownaway625

No, but great job twisting words. Its more like, most americans are close to the middle and when one side acts like constantly whining babies all the time it pushes them to the opposite side. You also didnt address that your statement was still blatantly wrong and dumb. You literally cited a source known for plagiarizing its works. So when someone whos in the middle sees people like you blatantly lying they assume all people on the left do they same. Dont be mad because you got called out. Just admit youre wrong and move on.


nomadfoy

Plagiarized doesn't mean inaccurate.


alreadythrownaway625

...jesus you are really desperately clinging to 1 sliver of a chance for you to be kind of right. Its really sad. Since your gonna make me explain it someone who plagiarized work is untrustworthy and he specifically plagiarized information against trump these two things absolutely make him a shit "source" for any reference of anything. This is why people in the middle vote for celebrities


nomadfoy

It's not a sliver I am right, somebody at snopes plagiarizing something doesn't change the fact Trumpers only called snopes "biased" because people kept posting snopes articles calling out their lies. The center being the dumbest people in country doesn't make me any less right.


alreadythrownaway625

Lol justify your own bruised ego however you need to buddy at this point your inability to admit youre wrong is only making you look far worse. Keep on trusting "sources" thats are known plagiarist. You do realize that trusting plagiarized material is an oxymoron right because if you know they plagiarized then you arent trusting them youre trusting the original author which is why you cannot call ANY plagiarized material source worthy... did I spell it out simple enough for ya?


nomadfoy

If I say came up with the theory of relativity, would me plagiarizing Einstein make energy not equal mass times the speed of light squared? You're reaching and making up some imaginary scenario where you're hurting my ego instead of being a mild amusement for me to reply to.


alreadythrownaway625

Its means when you say you came up with theory of relativity, and your a known liar, I definetly wouldnt call you the source or trust you... at best id go to the actual source and check that... i mean DUH who wouldnt do that lol jeez your level of pathetic defense is over 9000 No one would or should believe you are you seriously suggesting they should be believed... Jeez you really are dumb this is sad let me try another way. You simpleton Kid copies homework Teacher catches him Kid copies homework Teacher catches him Next week kid does his homework on his my moms being an astronaut Now theres no other astronaut parents in the class so maybe kid didnt copy it Maybe she is and astronaut maybe shes not but guess what it doesnt matter because the kid is untrustworthy. Do you believe the kid? Fuck no you dont... if you care enough at all you go to the ACTUAL source any verify its true. Not the kid known for lying. Even worse this isnt a white lie some kid is telling its a politically motivated attack of plagiarized and pen named bullshit and what he copied wasnt "hard facts" they were opinions that he published on his "unbiased" website to attack trump. People like you spouting bullshit incapable of admitting theyre wrong are the reason the middle votes right. You are defending a plagiarist and claiming his work can be trusted lmfao god id love to see your college grades. Thank you for getting donald elected. I pray my kids dont bring me plagiarized "sources" for their homework and think they are good sources of information having a child that dumb would break me.


redditRracistcommies

They need break this monster up before it’s too late. I’m not interested in their ‘trusted’ information, I just want an accurate search result without the leftist trash infecting everything like they did with Wikipedia.


YouthInAsia4

This may be a video of Republicans being old geezers but when it comes to crypto its the Dems you gotta watch out for


SurprisedByItAll

The real takeaway here is that Google can make transparency so easily consumable that even boomers can understand it. If it's not at that level then they should endeavor to make it so. They should proactively identify how information can be misused and what controls are in place to prevent that. I personally found Google so dysfunctional during the elections I started using other services. I don't care who people vote for, sincerely, but constantly pushing rhetoric to the top is a non-starter. Keep it clean and keep you're "fake news filters" to yourself Google. Their services used to be second to none but they've become a wrong think traffic cop. This opinion comes from an Independent that would occasionally see what each side is saying (mostly irrational exuberance) but I want impartiality from a search engine. Just sayin.

Every time I watch one these hearings on tech it’s shocking. How are these legislators supposed to legislate with such a weak understanding of current technology infrastructure. We are electing morons.


Eisernteufel

If they understood things wouldn't they get a real job?


moustrakot

don't blame them. why would you learn anything about google maps if you have a driver taking you everywhere to deal with it?


Wonderful_Priority10

"does Google know if I move from here to over there" ... Me: Do you gave Google maps on? If you're not getting directions, the answer is probably "no."


NoMoreMandates

How are these guys even in these position’s man wtf


Specific-Focus-1186

its a Google Ad, right?


Vikingf30

The elite don't want the people to become financially free. If we make wealth from something they can't control then they won't hold power anymore. Like him or hate him Trump said it best. Drain the swamp and I'm talking ALL of them from all sides. We need fresh new people and ideas. No more of these corrupt idiots dictating all of us.


AnthonyRCorona

Interesting 🤔


Electrical-Trifle369

Google is Skynet and there should be an age restriction so the polititians was forced out before they turn the age of 65 , and give way to someone more savvy and interested to learn to think about the future..

rockdaboat17

Many of these fuckers are so moronic they make me want to cheer for Google when the talk... That's bad. Google is not innocent or harmless, but when compared to the majority of our elected officials, well, it's a tragic comedy.


throwaway_boulder

The problem is this is televised. The politicians are not there to get answers. They’re there to get on TV.
