Sounds about right, in all three cases there's essentially no competition. Airlines are uniformly awful (with the partial exception of Southwest), cable companies have a combination of natural and government-granted monopolies, and Facebook is the poster child of dominance via network effects. Satisfying customers doesn't have to be a high priority for any of them.

- tokenadult 16y agoI actually don't hate on airlines, even though I used to be a frequent flyer in what is still one of the most one-company airline markets in the United States. The only dealing I have with cable companies is letting my Internet signal come into my house on a TV cable that has never been used for TV. I'm not sure the comparison in the article fits me.
