Is Amazon an invasive species?
Is Facebook an ear worm?
This is a repeat and an expansion of the same idea from a post I made last month. It would explain why governments are having a hard time taxing or controlling Google. Apple and Android may be the churches and the clergy but Google rules all and knows all.
Amazon is an invasive species because it’s twenty five years of incredible growth worldwide has completely disrupted the retail ecosystem. Like the Lion Fish on the reefs in the Caribbean or the Salt Cedar in the riparian habitats of the American Southwest.
An ear worm is a song that gets stuck in your head. Facebook shares that property. Once you start looking, liking and/or posting you can’t stop easily.
