Report an Antitrust Violation
www.ftc.gov
If you have a question or comment about an antitrust issue, submit it to the Bureau of Competition by one of the methods below.

So as I understand it, Google’s using it’s monopoly market position to force web “standards” unilaterally (without an independent/conglomerate web specification standards where Google is only one of many voices) that will disadvantage its competitors and force people to leave its competitors.

I’m not a lawyer, and I’m a fledgling tech guy, but this sounds like abuse of a monopoly. Google which serves 75% of the world’s ads and has 75% of the browser market share seems to want to use its market power to annihilate people’s privacy and control over their web experience.

So we can file a complaint with FTC led by Lina Khan who has been the biggest warrior against abuse by big tech in the US.

We can also file a complaint with the DOJ:

And there have to be EU, UK, Indian, Chinese, and Japanese organizations that we can file antitrust complaints to.

    Louis Rossman did a video recently and I completely agree with him. He said that regulars/normies especially 9-5s won’t use Firefox as long the changes dont affect them personally.

    TLDR,: We’re fucked

      Firefox gets most of it’s funding from Google. Mozilla is playing politics, which is self-defeating. Louis is becoming the next Alex Jones. When it comes to tech; FOSS can typically run years behind, especially for large, complicated programs like web browsers. The search engine revenue is what’s keeping them afloat. Our primary goal should be to get people off the Google search engine, which is the moneymaker. It would be nice to have an ad blocker that only blocked Google Ads too.
