1 year agoE-commerce isn’t as much of a monopoly as “reddit-style social media”.
Technically anyone has the ability to open an eshop and sell whatever they want (provided they follow the appropriate sales/tax laws etc).
It’s just that people don’t like to buy from no-name shops online, as reputations give a level of accountability.
I imagine a lot of people got their credit card details stolen when the first eshops appeared.
