Scale in the tech industry is not inherently bad; it drives competition, benefits consumers, and fosters innovation among companies. The concern arises when scale distorts competition by allowing companies to lock out other players to the detriment of society and industries. The tech industry's scale dynamics differ from other industries, where mergers can be beneficial as long as competition remains fierce. The rapid emergence of new tech companies challenging incumbents highlights the importance of maintaining a competitive landscape. Tech companies are crucial players driving innovation across all industries, signaling a shift towards all companies eventually becoming tech companies.
