Classic framing problem:
Immediately assume it is wrong, then work backwards proving it, using minute details.
Would be more interesting to assume we're doing it, then think through the consequences. Or, define the stated end goal (fairer marketplace) and then see if the break up helps.
Super irony:
In the NGINX gets bought by F5 thread, people complain about AWS being killer competition, ruining the market for open source.
The emotions here are also nationalistic, as it hits US companies. Breaking up Ali or TenCent would get a different reaction.
