Breaking up big tech oxygenates the economy

Big tech should be broken up not because the companies are evil but because monopolies remove competitive incentives; just as breaking up AT&T produced baby bells worth more than the original within ten years, breaking up Google or Facebook would force the spun-off units to compete, attract venture funding to fast-growing categories that currently get the least seed money, and create incentives to fix harms—with the only real loser being the CEO who wants to sit on the iron throne.
