Is it wrong that we idolize FAANG? Should the govt intervene in business and privacy?

Yes, yes, yes. It’s called regulation. Somewhere between Europe and the US is a common-sense way to guide businesses to benefiting their customers and users, not just their shareholders.

Facebook, Amazon, Google. They all built extremely useful tools that billions use everyday. If they want to throw money at the best and brightest to develop means to reach more users, that's their prerogative.

Not reach more users, drive more clicks

People who are long FAANG, do any of the government lawsuits coming worry you(antitrust/monopoly, content, etc) as a long term shareholder? I figure most of these tech companies may get a slap on the wrist but understand the risks. Heck, most of these senators are invested in these companies and are they really going to break up companies like Amazon & Facebook? Seems like they would establish an extremely dangerous precedent

Do FAANG lowball offers nowadays? Got an Amazon offer with 130k TC. I am making 180k TC now. The recruiter told me I should consider FAANG brand and career potential. I think Amazon already doesn't have great WLB, and it doesn't sound like they truly value me.

Shocking reality: your GPA and test scores don't make you special.

The reality is that there will be more qualified people applying to HBS or any other top Business schools than they have spots. If you aggregate the number of people from MBB/ banking/Tech/ Military that apply to these firms, I would argue that’s well north of the 50% of these applicants. I can also assume that the people from these backgrounds are likely to have north of a 3.5 GPA due to the selectivity of these careers.
