The list of big tech acquisitions at the end is frightening.

Far too long to list in a comment. Starts on page 344 if you're interested. Lists acquisitions by Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and Google. Goes back as far as the first acquisition of each company (I think - Apple's first listed acquisition is 1988).
