Don't ascribe intention where incompetence is enough.

It's better to treat incompetence as maliciousness, than to treat maliciousness as incompetence.

The benefit of the doubt should only apply in the absence of a longstanding pattern of behavior to the contrary.

IMO Mozilla has run out of goodwill.

IMO Alphabet has run out of goodwill by abusing their market dominance in a more overt way.

Looking forward to more aggressive action by FTC, note that tech donors have asked Harris for Lina Khan's removal as a quid pro quo.

The key point is the courts only generally care about antitrust issues if they're adversely affecting the consumer, and alphabet is starting to get into that territory.
