Maybe. I don't know what's best, it's not a simple issue. At least, Standard Oil went from one giant behemoth to a couple of colossi. That's a little better. Even if it's not perfect, there's still "some" competition in the oil industry. (plus there are several other companies: Saudi Aramco, the Chinese Sinopec and CNPC, the Russian Lukoil, the French Total or the Italian ENI, etc.) Guuuugle (and its Big Tech brothers) is just one player and its business is information. That's even scarier. Spoiler

I don't care what anyone says, the US media loves Donald Trump because he makes them money. Oh, I definitely agree. "Orange man bad" is a way to make money. It's a mediocre way and a betrayal of their telos, but I guess they are on the "whatever works" boat now...
