Ok, Mark. That's enough.

Any coder can build a tool that allows individuals to connect and share. It's not a unique feature of Meta tools.

The unique property of Meta is that they have a hegemony. Which is ok.

They went further than that, though, and built the infrastructure for influencing the decisions of individuals. That's no longer ok.
