Addressing the Threat of Facebook and Google Monopolies

The unchecked power of Facebook and Google poses a significant threat to our society. Their monopolistic practices, including the promotion of addictive content and conspiracy theories, have resulted in billions in profits at the expense of local journalism and small businesses. These corporations' dominance in the digital advertising market and their invasive tracking of users further exacerbate these issues. Their actions disproportionately harm marginalized communities and workers. Moreover, their substantial financial investments in lobbying and deceptive campaigns undermine democratic processes. It is crucial to dismantle these monopolies, implement stringent regulations, and hold them accountable for their actions. This step is essential for achieving racial, gender, and economic justice. Therefore, it is requested that immediate action be taken to address this pressing issue.
