The internet is supposed to give the little guys at least a fighting chance - over and over, we see these shitty big companies (yelp, airbnb, etc, now grubhub) screwing those who can't fight back. Makes me so mad, isn't there anything that we can do?

The internet is free, mostly unregulated west world. That’s what happens when they aren’t enforceable rules. The big guys with VC money eat up the small guys lunch. It’s part of the system.
The internet was designed for everyone but nothing was there in place not to be exploited by the guys. Hell, just look at how much money Verizon makes from .com registrations.
It’s crazy.
