Maybe I am wrong, but isn't it a case of large business figures like this complaining about competition. For all too long they have controlled vast business empires and like puppet masters they have pulled all the strings, they are now complaining about other massive corporate entities doing exactly the same, so whats the difference?
This is no different to Microsoft now complaining about Googles dominance which is a joke after the position they held in the 1990s.
The problem is that this is all we ever have in terms of freedom of choice, which large corporate master do you want to give your money to?
We tell ourselves that we are free because we can choose Google over Microsoft or Apple over Samsung, but really what is the difference?
When corporate entities or business moguls complain about other businesses taking away your rights, it is not because they care, it is because they are worried about their own profit margins being effected by the competition.
What we really need is new community based enterprises like steem that conduct business in a different way, instead of the top down approach, we need something that works from the ground up. It is only then that we will not see Orwells nightmare become reality. (if it isn't already)
