"[C]overt foreign influence."

Israel "secretly hired a Toronto law firm in an effort to stop the Canadian government from accurately labeling wines from Israel’s illegal settlements in the Palestinian West Bank."

💰 Big Techin lobbausmiliardit – kuinka yritykset ostavat päätöksiä
Vuonna 2021 Amazon, Apple, Facebook ja Google käyttivät 55 miljoonaa dollaria lobbaamiseen Yhdysvalloissa. Vuonna 2022 summa nousi lähes 70 miljoonaan – Apple lisäsi lobbausbudjettiaan peräti 44 %. EU:ssa sama trendi: suuryritykset kasvattivat lobbausmenojaan Brysselissä.
Kaliforniassa lobbaus saavutti uuden tason: Uber, Lyft ja muut kyytipalvelut käyttivät yli 200 miljoonaa dollaria Proposition 22 -aloitteeseen, joka esti kuljettajien työntekijästatuksen. Yritykset pommittivat käyttäjiä ponnahdusviesteillä, joissa varoiteltiin hinnan noususta ja pidemmistä odotusajoista, jos aloite kaatuisi. Tulos? 58 % äänestäjistä kannatti yritysten linjaa.
Lobbaus ei ole enää pelkkää vaikuttamista – se on vallan ostamista. 💸

💰 Big Tech’s Billion-Dollar Lobbying – Corporations Buy Decisions.
In 2022 Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and Google spent nearly $70 million lobbying the U.S. federal government. The same trend in the EU.
Lobbying isn’t just influence anymore—it’s buying power. 💸

We paid an ex-Tory MP to lobby for our fake Chinese firm - and authorities did nothing Investigation finds no rules were broken. It just goes to show how few rules there are.

⬇️
💥 Fewer than 4% of investigations into unregistered #lobbying result in a penalty. The system isn’t just failing, it's been designed to fail: the rules are weak enough that those with money & connections rarely need to break them💥
