when the fuck are these bullshit fucking monopolies going to be broken up? They need to be broken up.
No government has the balls to act. More accurately, the lobbyists seem to be quite effective and the politicians often spineless and self-serving.
We'll hit them where it hurts. Market share. Google, you're no longer trusted to dictate web standards anymore. Websites must support Firefox as well as chrome. We need Firefox to have enough market share that companies wouldn't risk losing x% of their userbase and therefore revenues.
