If you like startups you should love anti-trust
One of my personal projects that I never pushed forward is a blog &quot;a monopoly a day&quot; (under-titled &quot;keeps the EU away&quot;). The idea is that everyday, I want to show small-ish negative impact of a big tech monopoly, and explaining it. The goal is that the sheer recurrence is enough to convince people of the negative impact on innovation and societal growth big companies have.<p>(That&#x27;s with a pretty broad definition of &quot;monopoly&quot;, including &quot;user-specific monopoly&quot; like you get with android &#x2F; ios, notions that I would also try to explain in said blog)<p>One example:<p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mobilesyrup.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;09&#x2F;27&#x2F;why-blackberry-never-released-an-android-powered-passport&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mobilesyrup.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;09&#x2F;27&#x2F;why-blackberry-never-rele...</a><p>&gt; I believe this one shows how a monopoly can prevent innovation. Blackberry with the Passport had a new form-factor. To make this phone worthwhile, it had to use a mainline OS. At the time, only Android with Google apps was available. However, Google rules back then couldn&#x27;t allow this.<p>Would HNers be interested in such content? And in contributing to it? (my knowledge wrt monopolies is in my area of expertise, and let&#x27;s just say I like being employable, so it&#x27;s better if it doesn&#x27;t look completely targetted)
