Google Fi and Fiber are counterarguments to this claim. It's pretty obvious their interest in these markets is to influence the oligopolistic prices and practices, not dominate them.
- serge2k 10y agoFi feeds in to growing android and fiber being scaled back is pretty much proof of exactly that.
- bduerst 10y agoFi's market competes with Verizon and ATT, and even if it's a play on Android as you say, vertical integration != market domination. ATT is now rolling out it's own Fiber program and Comcast it's own gigabit service, in response to Google Fiber, so it was successful in moving the oligopoly.
