Yes. State power is necessary to counter monopolies, probably the most effective way (if states actually choose to use that power).

I’m looking for a values framing here that can harmonize “don’t let the gov install backdoors in Signal“ and “don’t let corporations exist beyond regulatory oversight just because they’re tech companies.” Those two things really shouldn’t be in inherent conflict; it’s crisp, unifying framing I’m looking for.
