Everyone Plays #Monopoly Wrong and It Ruins the Game

This is such an excellent article. Most people don’t realize that for many items we have an illusion of choice, but in reality are dealing with #monopoly power. Then even if they do realize they don’t see why it’s bad for them.
This article clearly lays out how monopolies get away with making your life worse and more expensive.

The most important job, if you're a surgeon, and your patient has a MASSIVE brain aneurism, is to shrink and excise the life ending blood balloon, before it kills the patient.
If you give the surgeon a hundred coins, she could buy some disposable cameras, tell everyone else about the dangers of aneurisms, but it would waste the surgeons time, and kill the patient.

This isn't mine, I just found this interesting that an app store can have so much control.

Canadians are already struggling with the untenable cost of living. Now, retailers are teaming up with Big Tech to squeeze people even more. It’s time to stop the practice dead in its tracks. #cdnpoli".

In the move towards #SovereignTech what is going to be done over the monopoly control which Microsoft and Google have over email?
People who don't use their email services [points to self] are finding their emails increasingly blocked as spam, locking people into their services.
#Email is #CriticalInfrastructure which rests in the hands of two US corporations. It is also anti-competitive and a mass privacy risk for individuals and business.
