Ah, the classic "the US is the whole world" idiocy.
All of those companied are based in the US, while having global outreach.
So yes, in this case what US authorities decide will influence an entire world.
P.S. I'm not American, and yes, often times Americans do forget 96% of people don't live in the land of the free. That's not the case.
I mean, all of these companies that really should be broken up are, for some totally, definitely, unknown reason based in the US. So not that weird in that context.
im assuming apple is on that list
Definitely. Both Apple and Google are high up on that list.
how would you break up apple though. im interested.
Hmm. It's not like I've given it lot of thought before now. But what springs to mind is computers/phones/Apple TV at the very least.
i agree with apple tv being it's separate company
