Amazon is a completely different breed of horizontal/vertical integration. Makes facebook and google look antiquated.
>Amazon is the titan of twenty-first century commerce. In addition to being a retailer, it is now a marketing platform, a delivery and logistics network, a payment service, a credit lender, an auction house, a major book publisher, a producer of television and films, a fashion designer, a hardware manufacturer, and a leading host of cloud server space.

I actually think you could handle facebook without breaking it up (as simple on paper as it may sound to split fb/ig/wa.) Regulations requiring social graph portability and interoperability with other services would go a long way to opening up facebooks garden.
Do they want to break up Google or Alphabet?
