    Having enough political power to exert control over an industry is monopoly control in my book. Not yours?

    Theres a massive difference between advocating for something bu havinf some power and influence, and doing so with the power of a monopoly. You took my words and dialed them up to assume monopoly when all I meant is having a seat at the table.

    While you repeatedly insist (without basis) that services must use ads to exist, let me remind you: you are on Lemmy.

    Obviously not all services require ads to exist. Ive not stated that once, but you apparently are happy to put those words in my mouth to suit your arguments.

      Let’s say there’s a table, and sitting at it are nine companies that want to wring every penny out of consumers by any means necessary. Mozilla sits at the table.

      How many horrid companies are there at the table now?

      And what a table it is.

        I mean, good luck but I doubt anything really changes. I hope to be wrong I just don’t expect to be - less disappointing that way.
