Honestly, what I’d prefer to see is Google, Amazon, and Facebook get a proper monopoly breakup.
Separate the Google advertising/analytics/search, media, and phone business units.
For Amazon, splitting up web-services vs online shopping would be a good start.

They’re not mutually exclusive so no need for preference! I’d love to see some monopoly breakups and Linux get wider adoption haha
