Some regulation is necessary, but political interference to break up industry behemoths could be counterproductive
BREAK up Big Tech? Pandering politicians in the United States of America, Asia and Europe say the sector’s behemoths are too dominant and require a regulatory crackdown.
European politicians yapped endlessly about Big Tech “fixes” during the run-up to the European Union (EU) elections. America’s looming November vote fans “break up the monopolies” blabbering.
It is all nonsense.
