Isn't the term people are clutching for "lawlessness"
If anything defines the current epoch it is "post-legal".
For example, massive fines, now in the billions of dollars, pay
superficial lip-service to laws, but for mega-corps are simply the
cost of doing business.
The irony of course is that giant monopolies exist only because the
protection the rule of law bestows allows that. They are _very_
vulnerable. If we interpret "take on monopolies" using their own
rules, they'd be hacked off the grid in weeks if not days.
