A surprise only to those who think it's a good idea to allow large companies to corner the market.

Plus there are already existing concepts that prevent this. Simply tax massive profits made from the labour of others, having a non-profit competitor, laws against profiteering during a crises, a maximum CEO/worker pay ratio, etc. Actually applying those concepts ahead of time would help a lot more than a reactive code of conduct.

But that's Communism™.
