But is water wet? π€
Does it have water on it?
Most obvious monopoly since Ma Bell. Even worse than Microsoft which was also obviously a monopoly. Break them all up. Microsoft, ATT (for the... 4th time? Maybe just abolish them at this point...), Comcast, Verizon, Google, Apple, the list goes on. All those food corps that end up being 3 parent companies owning everything else. Break it all up. Force unionization also while going through the legal processes.
You know what, Alphabet and Meta will accept breaking up and form Google and Facebook respectively
Thanks I hate it
Unilever
Whaaa? The book store???
Whaaa? The web service provider?
Go get em, Khan!
"Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!!"
Amazon? Nah that can't be.
Amazon and google? Great news indeed. A shame the google one is mostly done in secret
Fuck these judges rigging the system in favor of monopolies.
That google judge was very concerned disclosing earnings would reveal company secrets so they allowed google to hide them in the trial. But they are publicly traded and required to disclose earnings...
Amazon hit with antitrust lawsuit by FTC, 17 states
https://thehill.com/policy/technology/4223527-amazon-antitrust-lawsuit/
In a partially redacted 172-page complaint, the FTC alleges that Amazon implemented an algorithm βfor the express purpose of deterring other online stores from offering lower prices.β
Any idea why it would be redacted?
