This is a terrible interview and Gates comes across like duplicitous.

Like, where to start? Somebody save this one before the edits.




Could you name your specific criticisms? Gates was punchy, sure, but his answers seem reasonable.


Well, for starters he seems quite in favour of a Western Great Firewall except this one will be used for Good(TM).

And although the current US government is pretty bad, Microsoft should buy their own social media platform which is being otherwise kneecapped for political reasons.

The remark about the Congress was cringey. Haha, let's laugh with the convicted monopolist about the good ol days.

As I read it, he explicitly said that he didn't think that MS should buy TikTok.
