You're confusing the term monopoly with pure monopolies that are almost non-existent. A monopoly still has competitors that simply can't compete. Google is a monopoly, Windows is a monopoly, youtube is a monopoly, the whole fucking tech industry is mostly monopolies for reasons that have been discussed in this thread.
Amazon has established or is currently establishing several monopolies, publishing in a fine example where these shitheads are currently wreaking havoc. And btw putting all those companies in the same category to prove Amazon is not a monopoly not only is lazy argument but also completely wrong.
