> Yes because government regulation of tech has been so successful in the past. Just look at how well the anti trust lawsuit against IBM went - that they later just dropped because it wasn’t relevant anymore - or the Microsoft lawsuit in 2000.

You can surely do better than these examples. Nobody would be better for lack of action against IBM, and lack of serious action against microsoft continues to hurt us today. C'mon. Break these useless, unproductive fuckers up.

Yes because of the Microsoft monopoly, other tech companies have failed to thrive.

Their monopolistic behavior in Windows led to their current browser, mobile, cloud, and game console dominance.

I think the Microsoft antitrust lawsuit was neutered on purpose by the Bush administration.
