This possibility, alongside Elon Musk's interest in purchasing TikTok, raises concerns about intensified competition in the social media landscape. With these developments, Meta could face significant risks as both buyers offer potential consolidation that challenges its dominance. The implications of these acquisitions are substantial, suggesting a shift in the dynamics of social media ownership and competition.
