By comparison, Zuckerberg has a 43% favorability ranking and Amazon Executive Chair Jeff Bezos came in at 47%. <\/p>\n<p>Elon Musk, the richest man in the world and Tesla iconoclast, nabbed a 64% favorability rating, falling just short of Gates, the study from Edison Research shows.<\/p>\n<p>The lackluster ratings for tech moguls may have underscored sentiment among New Yorkers that the government should be doing more to rein in Big Tech. Some 70% of New Yorkers said they were dissatisfied with current tech regulation and 80% of respondents said the current laws do not sufficiently protect individual privacy. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Mark-Zuckerberg_17.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Mark Zuckerberg \" class=\"wp-image-22670553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Mark-Zuckerberg_17.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Mark-Zuckerberg_17.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Mark-Zuckerberg_17.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Mark Zuckerberg\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roval rating is far below that of Bill<br \/>\nGates.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Bloomberg via Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Prognosticators say this underscores the fact even average New Yorkers are hungry for Big Tech regulation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAntitrust reform is bipartisan and popular, not just in New York but all across the country, and if the Senate can\u2019t get it together to even call a vote it\u2019s just the latest sign that the institution and its leadership are completely broken,\u201d one Washington insider told The Post.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting comes as discussions about antitrust legislation are reaching a fever pitch.
