This would be really hard to enforce. A big company could just invest in a startup, and have that startup spend money to earn market share while not being profitable.

I covered that as well - startups should be allowed to subsidize their operations only for a reasonable length of time and/or until their market share is below a certain threshold. (So Uber should be allowed to operate in a market without profits until they serve, say, less than 8% of taxi rides).
