A single judge has decided that Facebook doesn’t have a monopoly in social media...
I thought this was a great quote showing how terribly out-of-touch with the modern world this judge is:
There is a very obvious and universally-agreed on definition of social networking. This judge is just stuck in the 20th century when tobacco and/or office supplies actually mattered. With smoking at a tiny fraction of what it was a few decades ago, and people working from home more than ever, this dinosaur of a judge could not have picked more appropriate examples to demonstrate his misunderstanding of the 21st century if he tried.
What a joke. I’d say “OK Boomer” but he was born in the 1960s so there’s really no excuse for him being this ignorant. So because this judge cannot figure out what this newfangled ”social networking” thingamabob is… he rules that it can’t possibly be a monopoly. What a tool.

“The market-definition inquiry in this case is somewhat unusual because, unlike familiar consumer goods like tobacco or office supplies, there is no obvious or universally agreed-upon definition of just what a personal social networking service is,” Boasberg wrote.
