    Any alternative is better than letting monopolies stand.

      Sounds a lot like, “Biden & Harris support genocide, so let’s vote for Trump.”

          Under normal circumstances, but i just have this suspicion that Musk will buy it using Russian and Saudi funding like was rumored for where he got the funding for Twitter.

          So whether that would be a better situation I guess is up to interpretation.

          There is really only three browsers webkit (safari/apple), blink (chrome/Google) , and gecko (firefox/Mozilla) . Pretty much everything is running on one of those three and if Google has to seel chrome, I’m not sure if that would help the landscape. Building/maintinaing browsers is really hard and expensive, most likely you’d just have another big tech company step in making things worse.

        Preferring that we enforce our laws regardless of which billionaire benefits is a vote for Trump? I didn’t realize that. I’ve seen the light now. Thank you.

        We can’t continue selectively enforcing our laws against monopolies. (This is just dark humor. Citizens United is for the express purpose of ensuring that any anti-monopoly law enforcement we get is selective and political, for the rest of however long the US has left.)
