Episode notes

Lawmakers are preparing to vote on a bill that would stot this practice, which they're calling self preferencing. It's generally the idea that you use one of your products to give an unfair advantage to another product. If musk actually finally does walk away from this deal, i think the presumption is that those shares are going to sink.

Boris Johnson on Monday night survived a bruising no-confidence vote, and Elon Musk’s legal team has written to Twitter threatening to abort his $44bn acquisition. Plus, the FT’s Kiran Stacey reports on Big Techs’ big fight against an effort by US lawmakers to halt the practice of “self-preferencing”.
