about who or where they are selling the data and their protection of the data. Equifax comes to mind there. Sure, you could argue that I don't need to use financial services in this country, but the deal with Equifax (and companies I use which deal with Equifax) is that they get my data but that they will use it in certain ways, but protect it. They breached that contract like a bank which builds the vault from cardboard.

Then, anti-trust policy is the same discussion for big tech as other industries.
