Big successful companies in USA aren’t big just because of better access to capital. It’s easier to create a monopoly there without major consequences for the business. Europe has no interest in having such businesses, as was demonstrated by DMA.
- FirmwareBurner 1y ago> Europe has no interest in having such businesses That's objectively false. EU would love to have its own monopolistic companies in the tech sector the same way it has in other sectors. It's only against them because it has none. > as was demonstrated by DMA Europe's DMA is orthogonal to its wishes of having monopolistic companies as all of those companies are American not European.
- gorgonical 1y agoObjective statements require some evidence. Are you referring to evidence elsewhere in the conversation or have you forgotten to include it?
- FirmwareBurner 1y agoLike I previously wrote, the evidence is the monopolistic-style European companies that exist in different sectors than software.
- ivan_gammel 1y agoCan you give an example of a European consumer-oriented business being a monopoly in the EU? When it was founded? How is it regulated?
