The word in particular has special connotations in US law.
The people that like the service amazon provides probably don't want that designation applied to amazon, since there's a chance the company could be broken up at that point.
- Grimm1 6y agoI don't like it because calling a non monopoly a monopoly has potentially broader implications for other companies not just Amazon, I don't like the dominoes the shift to this thinking implies.
- ByteJockey 6y agoFair, I didn't cover it because dragging in the rest of the amazon scale companies seems like it would have cluttered the point I was trying to make. But your point is relevant, this has implications for many companies outside of just amazon.
