in Ma Bell the Social Network. on Social Times
I don't think the government would ever find a reason to break up social networks due to the monopolization of the market. Why? Because it's not a necessity. We use social networking for socializing, for fun and a little for business. However, we can certainly get by without it. The difference between social networks and the monopolization of the phone system is that phone service is not so much a "just for fun" system. It's necessary for business. Now, I guess you could say we could become just as dependent on social networks as we have on the telephone. But right now I think that our dependency on email, telephone and other forms of communication make social networking still a non-necessity.
