Pentagon Cancels $10 Billion Contract With Amazon & Microsoft
Darn investments out the window
Use skynet lol
07/19/2021 – Amazon: "Our terms have changed. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of any Amazon Service will be adjudicated in the state or Federal courts in King County, Washington, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in these courts. We each waive any right to a jury trial."
How about telling Amazon and Microsoft to stop mistreating their workers paying their fair share of taxes equal pay
Probably best that they didn't give it all to just one company. It would create a lot of jobs if our own cyber security was nationally developed software though, instead of only relying on the private sector entirely..
10 billion but I don’t have free Heath care 🙄
Solution. Internet computer. A crypto solution for cloud computing.
I wake up everyday healthy and sound without any pain, recovering so fast from my herpes disease damages after using a herbal supplements from Dr IGUDIA on YouTube.
Screams vulnerable and stupid
Hand it to Apple.
Perfectly timed w trumps class action
So they pentagon didn’t cancel the contract per se, misleading title
They cancelled them because these companies have way to much investment in public opinion.
They need someone who can do their dirty work from behind the curtain.
In my own opinion, I believe and agree with the idea of both tech giants having share in production. But as for the challenge, if, and I'm not, myself were an I.T. tech, with the frustration I sometimes witness the guys go through at my own place of employment, and I can only imagine the dinosaur program (probably) compared to the latest in technology via the Pentagon, there isn't enough money for that migraine. As they mentioned, by the time of launch it's already outdated..lol…
I totally agree these big corporates don't want to pay taxes cancel all their contracts.
Yes they did because Pelosi is investing heavily in NVDA, THE US GOVERNMENT IS CORRUPT!!!
Keep it old school. Buy out Soviet geniuses and bring 'em back for the dirty work.
Palantiiiir
We’re all for sale
10 billion in tax dollars! Wow!
😂😂😂
Had they not had John McAfee soo we cided… ah, never mind.
The things you order off Amazon is cheap and it doesn’t work it’s just trash 🚮
America wants its independence BACK! no more middle men or "buffers"
Finally, a government agency that knows their stuff. Microsoft had been unstable and hackable since 98and Amazon is into slave labor.
Best news all day
July 18th..
Google will help the Pentagon now they will get the 10 b
Is it a requirement that projects over $50k have to be contracted out? I think it’s a government thing so taxes get out back into circulation
They going to pay any taxes on this money or what?
Termination, not cancel
Google wins.
it opens them up to security threats
Big Tech companies are trying to usher in the BEAST SYSTEM, which gives honor to the Antichrist, while enslaving all those who are deceived. Total CONTROL
THANK YOU ! THEY WOULD OF SOLD IT INFORMATION TOO THE CHINESE ! CASE CLOSED !
