Sen. Elizabeth Warren ratcheted up her trust-busting message today in calling for the breakup of Amazon, Google and Facebook., Warren name-checked specific "anti-competitive" mergers she would have regulators unwind, including Facebook’s acquisition of WhatsApp and Instagram; Amazon’s purchase of Whole Foods and Zappos; and Google’s acquisitions of Waze, Nest and DoubleClick.
Warren is hardly alone among 2020 Democratic presidential contenders in applying more scrutiny to the market power of the nation's tech giants — Sens. Bernie Sanders and Amy Klobuchar have also talked tough on curbing Silicon Valley — but Warren's latest comments provide the most detailed roadmap of any candidate so far.Sign Up
President Donald Trump has also shown a willingness to weigh in on mergers, stoking concern of inappropriate White House influence over regulators, as in the case of the AT&T-Time Warner deal his administration unsuccessfully fought in court.
