There are 2 bills pending in the House that would curb this kind of abuse of monopoly power. Many Republicans support it, but as usual, Jim Jordan - who talks a game on Fox about Big Tech - blocks all reform, to serve Google lobbyists. It needs to be now:

To all my friends in Congress — especially @SenSchumer — thank you!

Once again, you've kept up your side of the bargain by holding up new laws that would hold Big Tech companies like mine accountable. #FakeZuck

Over the past 5 years there have been over 30 hearings to hold Big Tech accountable. My bill with Senator Grassley to put rules of the road in place to protect competition online and support small businesses has broad bipartisan support. It’s time to get it done.

“On the left is a product featuring a photo of dog — yes, a dog — for one of Amazon’s own brands.

Great thing about Twitter is follow-up. Now that this 'bargaining code' is working - driving hundreds of millions from Facebook/Google to Australian news companies, more $ per reporter to small pubs, close to passing in Canada, maybe revisit this bad take? Before we lose it. 1/2
