If near monopolies agree to rules sets with one another, they can effectively monopolize. That’s why there are regulations in place to prevent that behavior but we’re consistently seeing the lack of enforcement of those rules. Sure there are still other telecoms other than these two, but in the US each of the major telecoms are guilty of this sort of behavior, and while phone unlock is allowed they create unnecessary barriers to make it more difficult for consumers to do this, at the benefit of themselves. It’s similar malicious compliance to providing an ability to cancel a subscription but making it difficult to do so for consumers so they give up trying.

Near monopolies say monopolistic behavior is good for you and does not only benefit them. More bullshit at 11.

I’d sure like to hear people being allowed to pee in something that isn’t a bottle while being forced to deliver, or not being crushed by automation in warehouses for starters.

Hi, I’m annoying and want to be helpful. Am I helpful? If I repeat the same options again when you’ve told me I’m not helpful, will that be helpful? I won’t remember this conversation once it’s ended.

Hi, which option have you told me you already don’t want would you like?

Sorry, I didn’t quite catch that, please rage again.

Streaming services become required by law like insurance

Wait, why am I required to pay for a streaming service?

Because it has all of the entertainment electrolytes a human needs

And to no one’s surprise, wealthy powerful countries don’t want to share their wealth, which may also equate to sharing power.

Take a brick to Roku until it agrees to your terms.
