Zuckerberg threatens “major lawsuit” if Warren tries to break up Facebook

Who would go down without a fight if the government tried to break up your business? Just the logical next step of escalation.

This a little like waving the red flag at the snorting bull. Not a lot of upside.

Well if warren wanted to breakup a tech monopoly it would be amazon retail and aws which subsidizes their business.

From someone with zero knowledge of this process of breaking up large companies (example: Instagram and Facebook), how would that work exactly? Obviously the company would split and become two entities - but what then? How do the finances work? Each business becomes independently run and cannot affiliate with each other? Are there protections against "freebie" services, for example Facebook providing free services/data sharing to Instagram where it may be a paid feature for other companies?

Would anyone expect anything else?

How is that a "threat"? If someone threatens to decimate your company, of course you'll fight hard to save it.

We&#x27;re used to a world of such clear division and fighting between the 2 parties: democrats and republicans.<p>But, The irony here is that it&#x27;s democrats that are threatening to break up facebook and yet facebook is deeply democratic&#x2F;liberal.
