The thing with Google is that it's essentially a monopoly.
@DashEquals
@matrix @sjw They have a monopoly on what, exactly?
@DashEquals @sjw@neckbeard.xyz Search, video hosting, browsers and maybe email.
@matrix @sjw I use DuckDuckGo for search, AWS and Azure are popular for hosting, Firefox is better than Chrome.
Video is closer, but BitChute, PeerTube, VidLii, and many others exist. Being popular doesn't mean you have a monopoly.
They don't have a monopoly on email, but I would investigate anti-competitive practices, of rejecting email from non-Gmail domains (as they reject that at higher rates).

@DashEquals
I meant "video hosting", not "video, hosting". That's true that they don't have a monopoly on hosting.
Google got caught several times making it's sites run slower on non-Chromium browsers.
Being a monopoly does not mean you own 100% of the market, it's usually around 80%. It also depends on in which region, here for example the most popular search engine is seznam.cz
