Wrong. Corporations strong armed the market through lobbying and brain washing.

Take Amazon for example. Steals product ideas. Undercuts them. Bans them from their platform. https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/amazon-i...

Replaces quality products with Chinese garbage. Injects fake reviews. https://odysee.com/@rossmanngroup:a/the-downfall-of-amazon-d...

With legalized gov corruption (lobbying) and media campaigns to brainwash us into thinking how amazing all these megacorps are, of course most people think a centralized internet is the bee's knees. These people don't have time to crawl through these niche information channels and find out how these user-hostile corporations operate. The people see pretty colors and drool in response. We're given enough time to work, make some babies and die.

I bet there are some books on the matter, about collectivism and such.
