Streaming Music Increased Heavily in 2017, and Now Investors Are Scouting Spotify Before Their IPO
Spotify May Skip an IPO and Go Straight For a Direct Listing The tech market are in a state of transition with 2018 on the horizon. After Snapchat hit some roadblocks following their IPO, Spotify may be looking to go in a different direction with a direct listing.

Net Neutrality Is Not Dead, But It Is Currently In a Legal Battle
The Only Thing the F.C.C. Vote Accomplished Was a Setback of the Regulations for Net Neutrality Major media companies rushed to falsely report the death of Net Neutrality. First, and most importantly, there are very few laws that hold up over time. The majority of laws and regulations are repealed and reframed for each administration.

If death is absolute, than a majority of major media companies should all run retractions on their stories that claim the death of these regulations. Fake news has been a buzz

TIME reported that the revenue made off of Bitcoin will be taxed and accounted for leading into
If Net Neutrality Is Repealed On December 14, 2017: Get Ready to Repeal the Trump Administration on November 3, 2020
If Trump Wants Re-election in 2020, He Will Have to Stop the Repeal of Net Neutrality One of the few political items that has bipartisan support is Net Neutrality. Only money-hungry, greedy, corporate goons support the repeal of the laws to protect a balanced Internet. Even then, most of those goons have to understand the negative impact that will occur if the guidelines are removed following the vote on December 14. Furthermore, if the Trump administration is looking to obtain a win in the 2020 presidential election, repealing Net Neutrality will only decrease their chances to acquire votes. In a
