Yeah, this has nothing to do with antitrust. Just because a company is offering services enough that a plurality of users accept, doesn't warrant government interception or action.

If a company has complete control of a market, the market will require regulation to ensure it's possible for new entrants to stand a chance. You are incorrect.

"Control" has to be properly contextualized. Just because one company is the only available option for a service or product doesn't mean that business "controls" the industry.

Natural monopolies occur and get displaced by innovation all the time without any regulatory involvement.

It could be random, it could be the fallout from an attack, but it interrupts our workflows and our days and so we discuss it because working from home means no more sword fights anymore

Discord desktop client is having an outage due to cloudflare. You are not blocked from discord, this is an error and will resolve itself with time. In the meantime you can go to discord.com and use the web application or the mobile version. They both are not affected. @dang can we block comments on this or delete or something?
