The whole point of the case is to show that they control a monopoly. When there's a monopoly, you can't go anywhere else!

And my point, as someone who’s worked in antitrust field for over a decade, is that Amazon is a company that does the least to exert monopoly power out of all the big tech companies. In fact, they do so little that I think they are being stupid.

That's not a really good point.

"They're bad, but they aren't as bad as those other guys. In fact, I think they are stupid for not being worse."
