I don't see how a service which just regurgitates the content of another service is "competition".

  I'm not saying it is. I'm saying that today, social networks are an oligopoly and lack meaningful competition. That makes it not a free market, which means the social media companies shouldn't get to do everything that companies in a free market can, and should instead be regulated like other things that aren't free markets, e.g., utilities.

    Social networks are by no means an oligopoly. There are a LOT of social networks out there. There is a lot of competition. There are few, if any, real barriers for an end user to switch to a different social network – beyond convincing their friends to do so.
