The last case against FB, that was thrown out of court was also very weak. Now, the new head of the FTC had spoken out against monopolies. It isn't surprising that a hardliner who is emotionally invested in bringing down Big Tech won't accomplish much. I think we can expect similar cases brought against Google, Amazon etc.
