I'd think so, but in the US antitrust isn't really much of a thing. I wonder if they have grown large enough in Europe yet...



I'm curious why you think anti-trust isn't a thing in the US...

What do you think of the break-up of Bell Systems? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakup_of_the_Bell_System

There are also active anti-trust investigations into Google and Facebook.

I think tpmx means antitrust isn't currently much of a thing in the US, and I agree. Today's antitrust environment is a far cry from even the days of Bell.
