Not the monopolies they hold over the tech industry.

Or the fact they simultaneously hold more wealth than a small country, yet pay miniscule amounts of tax.

Or the detriment to society they influence, both directly and indirectly.

Or the fact they're intrusive ways to scrape our lives, and selling that data to thousands of "partners".

No no... Apparently it's jealousy that's driving the EU, rather than making them accountable.

Does the DMA actually do anything about that, except weakening monopolies?
