Silicon Valley is increasingly focused on acquisitions and consolidations rather than promoting innovation. Todayā€™s 'winners' are often the result of profitable buyouts, where larger companies eliminate potential competitors before they can even emerge. Whatā€™s happening here isnā€™t a tech utopia, but a well-planned chessboard of power and control. The 1% are no longer just a distant idea; their influence is real, built through mechanisms that concentrate wealth and power in the hands of a few. This creates an ecosystem where the already powerful continue to rise, while new players are kept out. The outcome is a monopoly-driven market where innovation is overshadowed by consolidation. These practices stifle competition, create high entry barriers, and ensure that the same players remain in power. In reality, Silicon Valleyā€™s story isnā€™t about creationā€”itā€™s about control.
