I mean that we strive to reduce monopolization by the means of anti-monopoly offices/agencies. States are huge monopolies - some things can't be managed by smaller independent entities, but if it's possible it's what should be done. The state is running the anti-monopoly offices so it obviously wouldn't prevent itself from acquiring a company, but it should do so.

Interesting - I meant it more for key technologies in which the state doesn't even have a presence e.g. cloud. The principle is inspired from public utilities e.g. energy or water services (sometimes bought/acquired/publicized by the state). It's a long way to say that maybe monopoly rules don't apply here :). What do you think?
