To be clear, this is an incredibly non-specific (neither her nor the merger in question) criticism, so you are proposing that no merger should ever be blocked for any reason?
- mrkramer 4y agoScrutinize big mergers don't block smaller acquisitions because you think you know that sometime in the future the smaller company will become big healthy competitor.
- ceejayoz 4y agoThat's not what they think they know. They think they know Facebook has the financial resources to buy out anyone with even a slight chance of becoming a competitor, and are leveraging that in an anti-competitive fashion.

Ofc they know it; Facebook/Meta is a public company with a huge cash pile and the pressure from investors to spend that cash is only increasing. They already spend billions for R&D just like their tech peers and the best way to spend the rest of the cash is apparently acquisitions.
