Creating a market by attracting customers with something they want and charging rent in the market is no more a monopoly in the digital world than it is in the real world. It’s like saying the mall can’t put free rollercoaster rides inside because then the stores that rent retail space would have to pay more and then pass that cost onto the customer and that inflates the price of goods. Would those stores spread the costs of that operation into the rest of their business, absolutely. Is there something wrong with that, nope.

I’m saying the article fails to make the case for monopoly to me the reader.
