Uh wait though, isn't this the entire tech business? Get people to centralize on using a technology then build a monopoly/moat around it? Who's going to acquire the sexy startups if we abandon our monopolistic ideas and the massive cash troves that come with them? Is there really another way? I know, I know, nobody wants to believe this is truly what happens. But let's be honest, big companies control much of what happens on the web now. And then they acquire smaller companies that challenge them. And the government doesn't know anything about tech or not nearly enough to understand that these monopolies probably need to be broken up. Can you think of an alternative to the system we're in, or does all technology lead to centralization like this?
