Those poxy anti monopoly laws seem to be working.
- harha 2y agoyeah but are they? it's not like there are five European search providers competing equally for the users. On the other hand, there's a bunch of quasi monopolies, e.g., Lufthansa on many routes in Germany after other airlines collapsed, or Datev for accounting (which interestingly you can't even buy but have to go through a tax advisor).
- crop_rotation 2y agoMonopoly laws are one thing, not being able to create new products is another. Sure Europe need not become a carbon copy of USA/China, but they need to ensure they can keep creating valuable products so their current way of life may sustain. I will encourage everyone to read the pdf as it highlights the concerns.
- jandrewrogers 2y agoYou can reach a $100B market cap simply by creating an amazing product that people all over the world want to use, no monopoly required. A prerequisite for this, of course, is an ecosystem that encourages and efficiently enables the creation of amazing products.
