How is this a competitive market if the big five buy all competition before they become a threat? And then they release articles saying that small companies don't matter. The small companies are the only ones who add something to the market.

it's clearly about the competition between startups to get bought!

...but yeah this neither particularly fair, competitive nor free in the market sense, is it?

We should definitely work towards improving the current laws against anti-competitive behaviour.
