The big tech firms such as Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft as examples are being investigated for further details about the acquisitions since 2010! This is a major blow to their market and could hurt their company as a whole.

Since 2010, most of the big tech firms acted as a giant monopoly within their industries and others to target and penetrate competition and growth. What this entails that their growth was based on driving competition out. Now, the FTC wants to investigate if they were doing it for dominating their niche in the tech industry.

For most we can see is Google is the major advertising and sponsorship as Amazon is for sales value of items and Facebook is the guru of social media. With such merger and acquisitions each of these companies bought competition or drove their competition towards bankruptcy. In social media market Facebook is the number one with Instagram as their child along with WhatsApp and Telegram for instant messaging.

Twitter, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Pinterest and other social media sites are considered within the same category. However, their growth and acquisitions weren’t entailed to influence their competition and sticked with their vision throughout the years. Twitter, is in fact a short messaging platform that gives news and breaking points which their mission statement hasn’t changed rather brought influencers and leaders to make conversations and bring headlines to the world.

On the other hand, Facebook actually expanded their operation into other sectors and was the reason behind 2016 scandals and threats that came across for people using the platform. Therefore, this shows how much of a legion Facebook has turned that they are unable to be controlled or maintained put.

Then we have other companies such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft that have their own stories, expansion, and roller coaster rides. So what’s the whole shakeup?

For one thing, the pre antitrust era was only in the U.S and now the big tech firms took it globally and other countries are crying for mercy. The tech firms have a lot of lobbying, influence, and convincing power that the politicians and celebrities are not able to say no to them rather accept their operation and business.

The shakeup will give each nation their own profile of customers and users portfolio that the politicians can contain their balance of power rather witnessing protests and frustration from the locals. On the other hand, the news is only breaking in the U.S and wait until Europe and Africa take a stand on this and how to battle it.

The other factor is the economy of each country will start to shape up better with their own big tech firms similar to China. Why? Because it will unify the country to sell as an example Italian products from Napoli to Milan and vice versa. Therefore, this can be the stimulation of economic infrastructure as a whole around the world.

The big tech firms enjoyed and fared with a magnificent times in their youth. Each high has its own consequences and the leaders around the world are not too pleased rather reluctant to see the changes for the future.
