Emily, most people won’t have a kajillion dollars like you to be able to read that, but below because I’m feeling generous I’ll show everyone how to read it anyway — no special extensions required.

I agree that regulation is crucial but it is not enough. If you mean “regulation” in the sense of the Sherman Antitrust Act (which the article mentions), then regulation could include break-ups, which would be a pretty good outcome. But in many cases I think we need to go much further than regulation can encompass — that in fact, many of those entities should be nationalized as they are vital public services that can’t be left in the hands of the “free” market. That can’t work and it obviously does not — the evidence is everywhere.

Now, I will tell the hoi polloi how to access this article.

First, go to Google and search for the headline, “The Big Tech Extortion Racket.” When you locate the right link, find the tiny down arrow on the upper right and choose “Cached.”

The cached version will then open. Then click “Text-only version” to, shockingly, get a version that is only text.

Then use the “Reader” feature of your browser to format it for improved readability.

Fin.
