Every other industry in Australia – banking, healthcare, telecommunications, mining, education, media and journalism – must follow rules that protect the public interest. The Big Tech companies which now have a huge impact on so much of our daily lives should be no different. Yes, businesses should pursue commercial success. But they should do well by doing good.
