Google is starting to have a monopoly on getting called out for having a monopoly. For the second time in under one year, the tech giant has been deemed to be operating an illegal monopoly, this time for its online advertising technology.

I have a lot of thoughts about a post-advertising/post-algo-driven-feed world. Ping me if this kind of thing interests you. I’d love to chat: 0/5 hats.] What If We Taxed Advertising?
