I don’t feel entitled to controlling any company unless I own stock.

If I build my career on a supplier company I don’t control, that’s my problem.

EU politicians seem to disagree. Mostly (I bet) to protect their own.

Well that’s not how it works. When a company controls a very important piece of something society starts to rely on (oil, information, communication ... etc), regulation is not just preferable . It is NECESSARY.

Couldn't the society adopt alternatives on their own if they feel it unfair?

When you are the only two Restaurant in town that offers dinning services and somehow these restaurant has a high barrier of entry so other restaurant cant compete, then yes. How much and what silverware you use could then be a problem.

And I could force you to buy silverware made in X.

Good thing your feelings aren't relevant to... Pretty much anything under discussion here, then.
