If you aren't prepared for the contingency where your counterparty bails, then yes, strategically you are failing to commoditize your product for the specific market. I think that's the basis of competition and free market economics.

lol in what world is breaking paid user contracts and flagrantly getting away with it democratic? What does free market even mean in this context? That the big trillion dollar corporation can bury you in legal fees or remove your means of making money with no way to question the decision to prove it was done in error?

This is insane. In no free society would this be just.

They need to rightfully be broken up to ensure a free society for everyone, not just the cohort of people that own alphabet stocks.

Show me the contract where Google promises to bring web traffic to your business.
