    Now please do Meta – It should be 3 distinct companies – FB, Whatsapp, and IG. Completely separated

    Maybe the government should stop rubber stamping purchases and mergers so these mega corps aren’t created in the first place. YouTube & Android were not in-house creations by Google. Meta acquired instagram and WhatsApp.

  3. If these companies paid their fair share of tax, they wouldn’t have oceans of cash to throw about with abandon.

  4. So many sensible Reddit suggestions so little sensible government action. I guess government workers aren’t Redditors.

  5. Meta and Google are by FAR the largest monopolies today. Meta absolutely needs to be forced to sell what’s app and possibly instagram… what they’re doing with IG and Threads should not be allowed.

  6. Since we’re all here asking for breakups, I think Microsoft is due for one too. They have far too much control.

  7. Next on the chopping up block need to be Amazon, Ticketmaster and Meta. You could probably throw Microsoft in there too.
