Reading stories about Amazon's acquisition of Eero and Google's acquisition of Nest, it feels like there's been a bit of 'consolidation fatigue' setting in the technology industry: the idea that every cool product that exists today will inevitably get gobbled up or copied by Amazon/Google/Facebook/Apple. People are more happy to see companies like present-day Microsoft that stay in their lane, so to speak.
What's your take, do you guys agree that this is even a thing?
