Yup. They care about money and monopoly as it also means more money.

All companies do. Any company that says they want a free market is lying or speaking from a place of disadvantage - they all would want a monopoly even more, preferably one where people are mandated by the government to buy their product. Or even better, if the government is the customer. $$$$$

Most tech companies on the stock market.

Plenty of mom and pop shops and 1 man websites that everyone should support.

Yes, of course, good distinction. I had stock market companies in mind.

I go out of my way to support the small websites. If there is an app I want to download, I check out their site first to see if I can buy from there so they can save on the crazy fees google charges
