A marketplayer with 90%&#xD;&#xA;marketshares, which acts transparently could be legitimate.&#xD;&#xA;But a 90% will always be proof of a heavily disbalanced and non-free market.&#xD;&#xA;A 90% player can always dry out, buy or threaten whatever competitor.&#xD;&#xA;&#xD;&#xA;For consumers to have good journalism on how such a company operates is crutial.&#xD;&#xA;Just as journalism is needed to control state power, they are also needed to help control&#xD;&#xA;every other monopoly.&#xD;&#xA;&#xD;&#xA;To the example with Teleport innovation. Clearly.&#xD;&#xA;When you find out a new technique on how to do something, you have a maketadvantage in knowledge.&#xD;&#xA;And therefore you can probably sell a profitable product.&#xD;&#xA;&#xD;&#xA;But eventually other people will figure out, how your machine works and try to produce and sell the same product.&#xD;&#xA;This evultion of markets is crutial for freedom.</html></oembed>
