Antitrust law isn't a solution here. Many different surveillance companies keeping records on us creates the same problems (if not more) as a few companies. The fundamental problem is that we have no ability to choose which of these companies we want to associate with. What is sorely needed is privacy legislation that says that data about an individual is fundamentally the property of that individual, and that the license for commercially storing/processing an individual's data can be revoked at any time. Having choices is the requisite first step to having competition.
