Obviously it shows that they do see it as a threat whether it translate to less earning or up to the extent of survival. But seriously is there really such a thing as a level playing field. If there is there won't be large corporations that monopolize certain field. Especially in our today's competitive business world.
You can't say that there is no level playing field just because a large corporation succeeds. Some companies have genuinely built up competitive advantages over a period of time. It is another matter that once they become large, they try to lobby governments and have regulations twisted in their favour.
Thanks for sharing!
