Fantastic. Hopefully Google is broken up completely. And then do Amazon and Facebook next. This mental oligarchy has gone on for too long. We need to go back to capitalism and a healthy playing field.


I'd be curious if Amazon is exploiting their market position somehow but frankly they're just better than the competition. Every time I got to a brick and mortar retailer beyond Aldi I regret it.

I also have many friends who work there who say it's hard work but the pay is great and there's a clear path to climb. I can't say the same about old brick and mortars.


I think usually when people talk about Amazon they are also talking about AWS - not just the consumer storefront.


You can both abuse your market position and offer a better service, possibly because of the former enabling it.
