Tech CEOs Jeff Bezos, Tim Cook, Sundar Pichai and Mark
Zuckerberg will testify before the House Judiciary Committee on July 29 about
the dominance of Amazon, Apple, Google and Facebook.
The Washington Post’s Libby Casey will anchor coverage and
be joined by reporters Elizabeth Dwoskin, Tony Romm and Cat Zakrzewski for
analysis on how this event may affect consumers, the economy and
legislation.
Of the four chief executives, Amazon's Bezos is the only one
to have never appeared before Congress. (Bezos owns The Washington Post.) Cook
testified in front of the Senate in 2013, Pichai appeared in 2018, and
Zuckerberg has made multiple appearances in recent years.
The hearing caps off a year-long investigation by the
committee into anti-competitive practices by tech companies. Previous hearings
by the committee have focused on the impact of big tech companies on their
competitors, data privacy implications and the efforts of agencies tasked with
antitrust enforcement.
