No, I can't help him.
The problem with raising the dead is that you end up with a zombie
which is not quite what you wanted and lacking in many ways.
Breaking up Google will likely follow the same path as breaking up
AT&T in 1982. Those who held Baby Bell stock made money from the
breakup. When the Baby Bells eventually began buying each other, they
made more money. Eventually the AT&T which emerged from these
conglomerations was a shadow of its former glorious monopoly. In
other words, a Zombie.

You can fix that, all by yourself. Follow the instructions on the
"Usenet Improvement Project" pages:
<https://twovoyagers.com/improve-usenet.org/>.
For you and other Xnews users, click on "Xnews" in the left panel.
> bring back dejanews.
Dejanews dropped Usenet because its Usenet was losing money, not making
it. You have no clues how to turn that around.

valuable source of information, but like this group, it's nothing now.

Ummm....
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakup_of_the_Bell_System>
The breakup of the Bell System was mandated on January 8, 1982
by an agreed consent decree...
However, you're correct about the date when the breakup happened:
Effective January 1, 1984, the Bell System's many member
companies were variously merged into seven independent
"Regional Holding Companies"...

There's still plenty of life in Usenet. There's just a pittance

I subscribe to over 300 newsgroups and actively participate in more than

Well, you might be right. The government would be primarily
interested in those divisions that track individuals, collect personal
information (spying), sniff email, data center operations, create user
profiles, etc. If the Feds break off just those divisions that are
involved in these activities, the remaining divisions, such as
advertising, productivity software, cloud storage, videos, balloon
communications, etc could still be profitable. It would be a weird
looking breakup, but I think it could be made to function without
losing much functionality to any of the resulting divisions.

Alphabet, which just made yet another shake-up to its structure"

Well, you might be right. The government would be primarily
interested in those divisions that track individuals, collect personal
information (spying), sniff email, data center operations, create user
profiles, etc. If the Feds break off just those divisions that are
involved in these activities, the remaining divisions, such as
advertising, productivity software, cloud storage, videos, balloon
communications, etc could still be profitable. It would be a weird
looking breakup, but I think it could be made to function without
losing much functionality to any of the resulting divisions.

The people have spoken. They aren't interested in anything that requires
more skill than Facebook.. Break up Facebook and a clone will take its
place.
You're ranting. You hate the world so you're here to bitch. You aren't
proposing anything. "Get rid of shit admins" Yeah? How the fuck are
you going to accomplish that? Do you even know what the Internet is?
