But the monopoly is in the same company controlling all this.
That's not what monopoly means. Monopoly means they are the sole supplier in a given market and can therefore charge whatever they want. Google as we're describing it is an example of horizontal integration.

Quote from: Admiral Yi on Today at 04:08:02 AMQuote from: Josquius on Today at 03:28:08 AMIt's not about how they operate. It's about the fact they're all interlinked and give very complete advertising profiles /advertising power.
It's not email or search or whatever where googles monopoly is the real problem. It's data and advertising.
So let me see if I've got it. You don't mind youtube collecting data about your clip viewing habits, or google search collecting data about your search habits, it's that they share this data with each other. Is that right?

QuoteI read online that crows will kill and eat rats.
A rat has entered my garden and is taking food meant for the birds. This is not appropriate. The crows seem afraid of him. He is a pretty small rat. What is going on.

What would be achieved by breaking up Google? If you object to the way they operate search, or email, or youtube, how would breaking up the company change that?

I'm not sure MTG puts much political calculus in anything she does, but I guess she wants to duck a nasty year for the GOP, and prime herself for the post-Trump years.
