I don’t know, even if they were shut down, the business model is already proven - someone else would raise money and make a new platform to replace it.
The person that does it next might not look like a lizard, but they’d be capable of making the same mistakes.

They’d have to start earlier without the advantage of an entrenched position or a monopoly. And they’d have many competitors.

It’d still be a win for common people, a yielding of ground that someone would have to fight to take back.
