Not so long ago, Silicon Valley was America鈥檚 pride and joy. Google, Facebook, and Apple represented the best of America鈥攐ur drive to innovate, to dare, to dream. But the winds have decidedly shifted in the last year or two, as Big Tech鈥檚 enormous wealth and power have become apparent. Has Big Tech taken on monpoolistic tendencies, stifling competition and innovation? Are these tech darlings big enough to necessitate increased regulation or perhaps even antitrust action? Is it time to break up Big Tech?
