This is an article about monopolies - which are all about scale and market dominance.
Yet you've excluded both from your analysis. It doesn't seem to be a good faith argument.
- idontevenknow1 6y agoFaith doesn't matter in an argument. This is a purely logical discussion. If you sell ads, it means you are an ads company. The degree to which you sell ads doesn't factor in to that. I can argue that apple monopolized ads on iOS devices by disabling cookies on safari and removing the targeting capabilities on ad-identifiers. Now the only way to have targeted ads is through the app store. Hope this satisfies your arbitrary 'it should be a monopoly before i discuss it' argument.

Nope. An <x> company is a company that primarily deals in x. Ford is a car company. Their cars contain computers. Doesn't make Ford a computer company. The cars also have tires. Doesn't make car a tire company. Some cars have leather seats. Doesn't make Ford a leather company, furniture company or upholstery company. > The degree to which you sell ads doesn't factor in to that Sure does. Particularly in the case of anti-trust, which is the topic here.
