I agree with the courts, speaking as someone that hasn't used FB in almost a decade (never used IG, might use whatsapp every couple of months) and same with twitter.
It's just nonsense to me because people have convinced themselves they can't live without them… addicted to their centralized social media skinner boxes to the degree they are no longer capable of rational thoughts on such subjects.
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoThe fact that people can choose not to use a product has nothing to do with whether it is a monopoly or not.
- cinquemb 5y agoAgreed, and there are plenty of alternatives that people can and do use to send garbage to one another that arent fb and its centralized brethren.
- specialist 5y agoThe criteria is not monopoly or not. Bork argued regulators should only consider benefit to the customer. Who is Facebook's customer? Did they benefit? Before, and now after, Bork the criteria included anticompetitive behavior. In that regard, Facebook's actions would make Microsoft blush.
