  7. Ah yes, #GameStop, showing its mastery of #Monopoly by offering $55.5B for #eBay, because clearly they needed more loot boxes and underwhelming sequels in their portfolio. 🎮💰 Maybe they plan to sell eBay gift cards next to those Funko Pops nobody wants. 🙄

    Because of course they did.

  12. From the #DreyDossier:

    A lot of material information (14 pages) was left out of disclosures relevant to #WarnerBrosDiscovery shareholders ahead of the upcoming vote on the #merger with #ParamountSkydance, until a shareholder sued. One wonders why.

    Hint: undisclosed conflicts of interest, including foreign investment from Qatar and Saudi.

    #Google continues their strangling of the #open #web - most influential was maybe killing the #Blogosphere and giving rise to the #corporate #platform #web by sunsetting their #Reader.

    Now another #monopoly is used to get rid of human-friendly xml documents. A thing many of people involved in the decision likely can't imagine and many people familiar with the corporate platform web won't miss. They're fine with a browser that can render animated #advertising and are not interested in documents which their attention span doesn't allow to read them anyway.

    Exceptionally sad, yet not surprising, is that Google is aided by #Mozilla and #Firefox in doing so.

  20. @DjityDjity #Banks part is quite a simple #monopoly of #power.

    1- Paying out low and get from others high

    and

    2- controlling house #prices (almost totally) from mortgages / #loan rates they #control / we need to ask from them.

    What a #waste of #time and #energy !

    (e.g. #mortgages - Even if completed over 20-30 years means you still have to pay #land #tax / #rent for the land the house is on as monthly cost - even if you "own" the house).

    #Mortgage the #planet !
    What a 'wonderful' idea...
