Should the government break up Amazon, Facebook and Google?

I honestly don't have an opinion either way. I see an equal argument to be made for both sides.

They shouldn't be broken up, but more heavily regulated.

No, just reduce copyright they have and require them to protect the right to privacy of the users

Regardless, break up monopolies and help small businesses.

No, but have more control over the companies.

Break up Amazon, into its media division, three different sales companies, and its own products seperately.
Break up Facebook, into Facebook, Instagram, their other products, and a second verision of both facebook and Instagram.
Break up google into, three search engines, 8 video platforms, Workplace, school, and others based on their general service provided.
I would also break up Disney, NBCUniversal, Warner Media, and the various canadian companies.

No, as long as they don't commit corporate fraud and evade taxes

No the government can't control how much a business owns

no they should implement more rules on privacy

i dont think canada can do that

No, but do not allow large corporations the ability collect and retain data on Canadians that isn't vital

Lol there not Canadian

make sure they pay taxes comparable to other companies and review them for anti trust/anti competition

Facebook should, but the others are fine

Impartial.

No, but make sure that corporations comply with the constitution

Limit those companies through other means as breaking up does not work for tech companies. Limit growth, or increase taxes.

I do not necessarily see the harm in Google, they contribute lots to our economy and have provided us with some of the most groundbreaking software as of late in the computer science field. Facebook seems a little sketchy but they are the smallest company on this list so if you don't break up Google and Amazon first then you can't breakup Facebook. I believe Amazon being the largest company on this list should have its powers limited. Right now Amazon Web Services controls almost half of the infrastructure-as-a-service sector and can control significantly who gets to use the internet. If they keep growing and taking more market share then they could become the gatekeeper to the internet.

Yes, they have become far to powerful especially when it comes to there ability to control freedom of speech on the internet

No, but make them pay their fair share in taxes, and make them increase wages for workers.

no not until they get too powerful and the government needs to step in which is usually extremely rare but more possible as time goes on.

No, but reduce their power over corporations and society as a whole.

Yes, I think the government should crackdown on monopolies.

Yes, and strengthen antitrust laws for all businesses operating in Canada.

Not quite sure if this will have a big impact on anything.

These corporations should be required to pay taxes for the services they offer Canadians in Canada.

No, but these giant corporations should have to have much of their practices open to the government while being regulated.

They are too big of a monopoly but the governement should NOT be involved

No, let users of the companies and the free market decide

We should stop relying and stand up to big tech corporations.

Increase privacy and data protection and ensure they do not interfere with political issues

I don't think this is possible, but they should be regulated a lot more than they currently are, to prevent violations of workers' rights, union busting and to impose limitations on what they can censor, and what information they can sell to advertisers.

No, but only Google.

No but end the censorship of Anything Conservative

No, however penalize businesses that are determined to be unfairly controlling a monopoly.

Only to control their lies and corruption

No but they should be subject to extreme penalties for politically biased censorship.

Yes, but I would prefer to Amazon,Facebook and Google that have been working against the people.

Yes, they should not be allowed to be everywhere

they can't, these are a small segment of internationally private companies. It is like asking if the government can split up the Disney company.

That should not be a government responsibility - but large companies like these should be more heavily regulated and taxed to give smaller business a chance, and have limited political influence.

They should make sure it does not over take, but they have the right to have the company and grow it.

Why are they dating and what does the government have to do with social platforms?

again, what???

Yes kind-of, definitely tax them to pieces. Perhaps for things like Amazon and Facebook, but government regulated of information sources gets tricky.

Break up Facebook but leave Amazon and Google

No but it should properly tax them at the EU level

No, because that's not how international online platforms function (e.g. breaking up YouTube makes no sense, and worst-case scenario would just cause further echo-chambers)

Canada has no power to do so
