I believe in a well-regulated market he wouldn't have found success like he did. Running for 8 years off of parents and VC/stock influx of millions of dollars screams anti-competitive to me. At the very least if we had decent privacy protection laws then the early data harvesting and business application probably would've been looked into at the start and shutdown, or else the company broken up from a monopoly once it started strangling whole sectors.
