You are confused as to how Big Tech as been able to grow in power. Big Tech has grown in power due the auspices of the Fed Govt's regulation.

Big Tech is already currently regulated. Section 230 provides organizations with immunity from liability from comments of users such as yourself.

The Govt can simply remove Section 230. Twitter would not last long.

That'd be option 1.

There are a handful of other things the Govt could do regarding Antitrust as well that I can bring up if you'd like.

At the end of the day, its just about Power. When Big Tech gets too powerful expect it to be broken up into pieces via Antitrust. Apple is in the cross hairs as well even though that has less to do with Section 230 for them.

See historical examples of the Bells in telecommunications.
