As big tech faces bigger scrutiny Google's big boss Sundar Pichai is warning that free and open internet is under attack globally and several nations are restricting the flow of information.

In an interview to BBC, Pichai said countries are restricting the flow of information, and the model is often taken for granted. 

These comments come on the heels of accusations against big tech for being 'monitors' and monopolies of information as antitrust cases rise across the globe against the big 4 tech giants.
