Twitter is already actively regulated by the FCC and operating under a fairly strict regime.

Twitter is under a consent decree by the FTC related to user privacy, not market competition.

You can browse all the companies that the FTC has consent decrees with. You don’t have to be large. The existence of a consent decree says nothing about their market position.
