You are living the consequences of what happens when a market is no longer a free market (where companies compete on merit) and instead an oligopoly, where companies extract all the value for themselves at the expense of everyone else. Now bow to your tech overlords, peasant.

The market has never once been free. A free market is a capitalist myth, either a higher authority gets involved to break up things such as monopolies or the companies collude together. Neither is “free”, capitalism is a failure of a ideology that has doomed our species and most others.
