It's ridiculous that the government is litigating this while ignoring the long standing monopolies that have been hurting consumers for decades. I would say it's also ridiculous that the government is putting the interests of advertisers over consumers, but that's not what they are doing. This is a transparent political maneuver by the bureaucrats in dc against the tech industry.

Your last sentence is full of buzzwords. What is the mechanism behind that? What is their motivation? Why would “dc” care about Facebook? If your answer is somehow related to “the blob,” you probably need to do some actual reading on the theory and practice of monopoly enforcement in the United States.
