There is a saying that the world is controlled by only 0.01% of people and they are doing it as they please. The reason why many strongly believe this is because of the fact that recently, Billion-dollar men Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg have shown the world that they have the full authority to do exactly whatever they want.

This has thus led to the question, do we even know how the current tech industry is operating that is based on neo-politics and free trade ideas? Maybe not, but one thing is for sure, it has brought a backlash and anger in people toward the Top 1 percent, who are using their authority to control the global market.
