I’m happy to talk about antitrust and breaking up conglomerates. But that needs to be a big conversation across many industries not just “Google bad, grrr”.

If you’re referencing WEI, btw, it is one of the topics people have been most misled about. Can link you to my Mastodon thread where I break down all the misunderstanding if you’d like

There’s no overarching anti-trust conversation to be had because there’s currently no anti-trust cases, if there ever will be. The comments under each individual instance of it being required is the “big conversation”. As a content aggregation site (mainly news) the only place it could realistically occur is under some wishful thinking self-post nobody would care about.

I also saw people pine for trust busting just the other day under some Amazon article, there’s simply nowhere else to post about it at the moment.

  I meant to say that I’m much more inclined to have conversations with people about the need for stricter antitrust laws and enforcement than I am about a single subsidiary of a multinational corp. protecting their revenue stream
