Maybe you can break up big tech, but it seems to me that the different companies pose different problems (and to different people), and that the remedy one picks depends on the problem one has identified. I'm not sure what you think the problem is.

I don't see one particular problem. They are many. But one I definitely see of importance is compulsion. Facebook has integrated itself into other platforms in a manner where one needs to have a Facebook account to use the platform, or has to jump through hoops to use it without a FB account. The expansion compels people who'd otherwise avoid FB, as many do, to provide a truly pernicious data mining machine with information.

Sounds like a form of price regulation. Who are the "data providers"?

People. Soylent Green is people.
