      In a previous generation, governments would go after this blatant anti competitive behaviour.

          It’s just a shame that there’s really only one government organization globally that will still stand up to corporations.

            To be fair China will send you to a reeducation camp or disappear you if you try to act like a western billionaire.

              China will make you disappear for many things including speaking up against the genocide of religious minorities ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
