wow... Apple, Google, Amazon... colluding in a trust to - zounami MU - 1/9 21:55:52

...using their monopoly power to crush the competition (nm) - zounami MU - 1/9 21:57:51

you listed 3 companies - meatiger MU - 1/9 22:12:33

They are colluding as a trust with collective monopoly power - zounami MU - 1/9 22:22:14

From a perspective of ignorance - ashtray UF - 1/10 08:08:12

- 1/9 22:25:38

wrong (nm) - zounami MU - 1/9 22:32:57

at least use the correct term - meatiger MU - 1/9 22:24:22

Amazon (AWS) is a virtual monopoly in cloud-based hosting... - zounami MU - 1/9 22:35:39

Neither one has a monopoly - ashtray UF - 1/10 08:09:22

AWS is the largest, Microsoft Azure and Google are #2 - TigerMatt STL - 1/9 22:38:10

AWS has more market share than the next 3 largest *combined* - zounami MU - 1/9 22:48:12

Being popular doesn't make one a monopoly - ashtray UF - 1/10 08:10:14

There are still lots of options, even overseas. If Parler - TigerMatt STL - 1/9 23:10:43

You're still at the mercy of whatever hosting provider you - zounami MU - 1/10 00:16:37

no (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/9 22:36:31

saying "no" doesn't make it so (nm) - zounami MU - 1/9 22:36:53

I did. (nm) - zounami MU - 1/9 22:32:45

would that be the...mono...part of monopoly? (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/9 22:18:26

they aren’t monopolies - pickle MU

- 1/9 21:59:31

I've already schooled you on this... - zounami MU - 1/9 22:07:01

no, you haven’t. they aren’t monopolies - pickle MU

- 1/9 22:17:45

it depends on a company's behavior and whether they - zounami MU - 1/9 22:19:24

false (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/10 08:13:15

What about government's behavior - meatiger MU - 1/9 22:27:52

it depends on their reasons for doing so (nm) - zounami MU - 1/9 22:36:39

So then AWS and Google had good reasons for doing so - meatiger MU - 1/9 22:39:32

no, their anticompetitive behavior serves their own... - zounami MU - 1/9 22:50:52

You sound like a socialist now - ashtray UF - 1/10 08:14:11

is it the job of a company to look at any interest - meatiger MU - 1/9 22:52:12

if they want to comply with antitrust laws (nm) - zounami MU - 1/9 22:56:17

wrong again (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/10 08:14:35

incorrect (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/9 22:25:27

wrong (nm) - zounami MU - 1/9 22:36:20

government stifles competition far more than companies do(nm) - meatiger MU - 1/9 22:25:08

not in this case (nm) - zounami MU - 1/9 22:36:14

lol no (nm) - pickle MU
