There’s plenty of competition IMO.
This is a deflection of the real issue: people’s data rights.
Just transparency of how it’s being used or opting out.
- “Google showed me this ad or search because my data location has me at a political protest”
- “Facebook shows me ad or post because I am under 18 black male but disguising it as an AI recommendation”
- “TikTok shows me next video because my net worth is X and I am at a gay bar”
- “YouTube showing me bitcoin scam ads because I’m from a college neighborhood and some biz geofenced us”
Like the big creepy stuff.

Then we also have the issues of closed systems, which is related to the data issue like the last two were related to each other.
