And it’s the SAME guy !! 🙃.
For him, this is all a game. “Stupid peasants don’t protest. They are dumb cows to milk. The board members are my friends. How high can my score go ? 70? 80 million?”
The market didn’t let this happen. Years of bad anti-monopoly practices have seen companies like Adobe buy out their competition.
As a result the amount of money it would take to simultaneously catch up to Adobe’s decades of development and compete with them at scale even with just one of their products is far outside what a lot of people are willing to invest.
The same is true for a lot of “big tech” right now. Imagine you wanted to start your own music streaming service…
