Oligopoly is nearly as bad as Monopoly.
Τechnically once the big4 (plus a couple more) own the 99% of the traffic then we will have monopolies on each areas. Google on Search, Amazon on Shopping, Facebook on Socials, Apple on Phones.
And on the outer circle a parasitic ad/tracking ecosystem working with these 4 monopolies. I am not a pescimist, but as nightmare scenarios go, I take it that this is a plausible one.
- ianmobbs 7y agoApple will never have a monopoly on phones, but it'll share that honor with Google.
- dodobirdlord 7y agoI don't know how you imagine that Apple will have a monopoly on mobile phones. They don't even have a quarter of the market!
