The discussion is more one of he principle of whether a dominant market leader is allowed to use its position of dominance in the market to influence that market or not. It’s hardly “left and right” to debate this as being right or wrong.

That is certainly true, but they were arguing whether it should be regulated. And regulation or not are always political.

Especially for the businesses doing the lobbying not to be regulated.
