How would a government even go after a monopoly that isn't doing anything malicious against its competitors?
What would the punishment even be? Forcing adoption of other platforms to artificially inflate usage rates? Breaking Google Search into two competing Google Mini-Search products that aren't expected to cooperate and push search #3 and onward out of the market?

- pb7 6y agoYelp is a parasite that participates in extortion of small businesses. They need to be investigated themselves long before their word has any weight in this matter.
