I don't usually want to open LinkedIn at all. I wonder if they paid MS for the shortcut?

[–] [email protected] 93 points 10 months ago (1 children)

LinkedIn is owned by MS

Ah, thanks. I missed that. I guess I need to update my "all these brands are really all owned by XYZ" chart again.

Wait a few more years, it’ll just be one single circle.

Sooo hope the Justice Department’s new antitrust push proves this joke wrong!

And that circle? Taco Bell.

Ah, the classic "the US is the whole world" idiocy.

All of those companied are based in the US, while having global outreach.

So yes, in this case what US authorities decide will influence an entire world.

P.S. I'm not American, and yes, often times Americans do forget 96% of people don't live in the land of the free. That's not the case.

I mean, all of these companies that really should be broken up are, for some totally, definitely, unknown reason based in the US. So not that weird in that context.

im assuming apple is on that list

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Definitely. Both Apple and Google are high up on that list.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

how would you break up apple though. im interested.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hmm. It's not like I've given it lot of thought before now. But what springs to mind is computers/phones/Apple TV at the very least.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

i agree with apple tv being it's separate company
