Antitrust regulations should kill google and facebook, but they’re not. In my opinion those two are much bigger fish to fry than two movie companies.

I don't think Google has any plans to acquire Facebook, have you heard differently?

I think he meant breaking up Google and Facebook respectively rather than halting a merger.

Every new day is a day that puts the Gilded Age to shame. I'm scared for the future.

I wonder what would happen if Google was divided into a bunch of smaller but cooperative regional search engines/datacenters.

Would that be better or worse for competition?

I would like that. A Google US competing against a Google Germany competing against a Google India etc for the global search market.
