I do not think the recent reliability and quality of major services would be considered acceptable if it weren't for a domestic tech oligopoly systematically lowering standards.

The U.S. auto industry also shows that oligopolies can shut out competition for quite some time and steer their captive market into accepting mediocrity, but innovation continues anyway. It's quite the contrast seeing domestic automakers turn their backs on EVs at the same time the Chinese are advertising 10 minute flash charging.
