I agree with Peter Thiel’s observations about allowing monopolists to reap the rewards of their innovation. And almost no-one (ok, Elon, I heard that cough) has innovated as much as Amazon in the last decade. That said, banning chromecast etc is a dangerous precedent and I’d like to see Bezos apologise for that. It’s an unusually shortsighted move that does not fit at all for me. If you’re going to attack a tech giant for being rubbish and monopolistic, Facebook is right there doing very little other than milking ads, acting irresponsibly, and burning a whole lot of time out of the economy.
