Google, Meta, MSFT, Apple, and many many others.
My (perhaps moronic, but hey, I’m not an expert) metric is this: if a company X constantly buys other companies just for the sake of preventing competition —- it’s bad, and we risk to have a monopoly. Which, we almost do have with Google, Apple, and many others.
I mean, it’s a fine line to thread: companies should be able to do M&As, but at the same time, they should not be allowed to become monopolies.

- reliabilityguy 1y agoThank you for a very insightful comment. PS you do not have to have a monopoly to get no or minimal competition.
- arrosenberg 1y agoAntitrust law covers a broad range of anti-competitive corporate behavior. Don't be pedantic.
