Is it any different from wealthy established multinationals offering a free tier subsidized by steady profits from established (sometimes even monopolistic) product lines killing all startup offerings?
- nmfisher 3y agoIt’s probably the same, but I’m not necessarily talking about outlawing the practice itself, just the acquisition that makes the practice (eventually) profitable for investors. Large companies with monopolistic product lines shouldn’t be able to merge either.
