COMPANY BUILT ON IP THEFT RAGES AGAINST THEFT OF ITS OWN IP
ANTHROPIC ACCUSED ALIBABA OF UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO ITS AI MODELS, OUTLINING ITS ALLEGATIONS IN LETTERS SENT TO U.S. SENATORS AND THE WHITE HOUSE AMID GROWING U.S.-CHINA TENSIONS OVER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. THE CLAIMS WERE COMMUNICATED DIRECTLY TO U.S. OFFICIALS, WHILE ALIBABA DECLINED TO COMMENT ON THE ALLEGATIONS, POTENTIALLY RAISING FURTHER SCRUTINY OF CROSS-BORDER AI COMPETITION AND TECHNOLOGY SECURITY.

Songwriters had their right to bargain taken away by government compulsory licensing for the benefit of music users, then had the rates frozen for decades which makes the rates less than zero due to the rot of inflation.

Spotify is getting heat for crash in market value. Maybe it should get heat for is being publicly traded in the first place. In the pre-Dot Bomb bubble, it was not so easy to take a company public and it certainly wasn't easy to get absurd valuations. digitalmusicnews.com/2022/05…

You still have to ask how Spotify gets a positive ESG score when streaming is a major polluter, they screw millions of artists and songwriters and producers while trafficking in payola, and give two white men total voting control of the company.

So no, I'm not surprised that the stock is coming back to reality because gravity always wins.

What does inflation look like? Check out your tax bill which may be the double whammy. Government hasn't indexed tax rates and isn't gonna. Remember this was a campaign issue for Ronald Reagan in the 1980 election. CPAs will deliver bad news this week. nytimespost.com/the-last-tim…

Music makers won’t be intimidated by broadcasters’ threats to reduce airtime; Mr. LeGeyt’s broadcasters may run a type of sweat shop but they won’t deter our cause for economic justice. Let’s pass the bill: irespectmusic.org #IRespectMusic #MusicFairness #AMFA

Federal Reserve is in a box. Inflation is raging and their only "weapon" is a sharp rise in interest rates due to 10 years of easy money quantitative easing. On top of today's spike in 10Y Bond. More reasons to get CPI on mechanicals just like webcasting. tradingeconomics.com/united-…
Inflation drives mortgage rates so expect higher rents any minute: "The yield on the 10-year Treasury note broke above 2% for the first time since August 2019, likely pushing the Federal Reserve to consider the half-percentage-point increase in the fed funds rate."
