From the start, this stood out to me as a very faulty premise. How exactly was Parler, a social media site, a competitor to Amazon, Google, or Apple? It would be different if this were Facebook, but we're talking about ecosystems/infrastructure vs a single app/website.
Also how can the power of three separate companies be a monopoly? The argument seems to be that Silicon Valley is itself a monopoly, except Silicon Valley is only a geographic location.
