      They dont want to just run it.

      they want to control and dictate it.

      Google needs a massive regulatory hammer to come down on it and smash it into dozens, if not hundreds, of tiny individual companies

          The internet is incredibly important to the modern society. Letting private companies only motivated by filling the pockets of the old farts shareholders run it is a bad idea. It’s time we consider Internet infrastructure like any other type of infrastructure.

            I agree with you. But have you seen how California has handed over the power grid to private companies?

            I find it wild we don’t nationalize the banks we bail out with trillions of our tax dollars. Each and every one of us should be getting dividends on their profits, we should own half of the banks by now

        That needs to happen more with Alphabet than Google but either would be great.

            There’s no reason that people should assume you meant Alphabet rather than Google? Seeing as you used “Google” rather than “Alphabet” as they’re two different words. English is fun!

              I bet you sit at home, dumbfounded and confused, as to why people never invite you to parties/trips.
