Aside from YouTube, there’s an alternative for all of the services provided by Google and Meta. Fastmail, X (Twitter), a billion different messenger apps, Microsoft apps for office applications, etc etc.
- rurp 2y agoA company doesn't need a literal 100% market share to have monopolistic power. Products like Google Search or Gmail that dominate their respective markets count.
- mrguyorama 2y agoGoogle and Facebook are ads companies. Everything they build, deploy, do, share, sell, and buy is about selling ads. Youtube is a platform to sell ads. Gmail is a platform to collect data to sell ads. Facebook is a platform to collect data to sell ads on Facebook. Both companies have "analytics" products that exist to collect more data for ads. What competition is there in the Ad space for internet advertising?
- linotype 2y agoI agree there really isn’t any for ads, it’s pretty much a duopoly now (though TikTok and Amazon are growing). I was more referring to consumer products like email and office suites.
