It would be more accurate to say the dojs lack of breaking up apple, google, facebook, amazon et al has harmed and continues to harm consumers. Pe hates breaking them up because it will end the gravy train of abusing dark patterns to grow a monthly recurring user base and selling it to the above at inflated prices to maintain their market power but it is necessary. We need pe doing the much harder job of funding compabies with better ideas that can stand on their own amd grow into the next company that needs to be broken up for having too much market power (a task that takes twice as long and is less of a sure bet vs the currrent model). Post ww2 we broke up too many companies too soon, in the 70s and 80s we swung way to far to laissez faire and now we need to swing hard back towards pre 70s thinking but not quite all the way back.
