If you really want to end that dominance quit using services by google, facebook, etc.

You absolutely do not live in reality.

It's easy to live in an ivory tower arguing political philosophy and saying things like just stop doing this as if 128 million people in the United States would just suddenly stop using smart phones, social media apps, and other things big tech.

Much of the American population is too dumb to follow your otherwise pointed advice and so it will never happen.

So with that being clear here, Government has a responsibility to make sure we're operating in a free and fair market and there is no monopoly.

Posts like yours are a good example of why LOLbertarians are an absolute joke and I'm embarrassed I ever called myself one at some point.

So instead of letting the 128 million Americans use the services they want you would rather the government break them up because your alternatives aren’t as good?

Cool.

It’s all small government until a private company doesn’t like your daddy

Bell basically owned every phone line in the county. There are other search engines, online stores, phone manufacturers and service providers.


This might be true but Cisco owns 90% if not more of the internet routers and switches world wide
