Amazon marketplace, AWS, Whole Foods, Twitch, Fulfillment by Amazon, and maybe Amazon Studios could all be separate companies. I think Amazon marketplace would also be forced to end some practices like not allowing sellers to have lower prices elsewhere.

Yes, because Amazon owning Whole Foods is keeping other grocery stores from competing and offering a lower price?

And Amazon Studios is do successful it must be broken up.

Not to mention if AWS was broken up from Amazon smaller competitors could come in an offer cloud services distributed world wide at scale.

Have you really thought about how useless these suggestions are?
