Fighting over limited resources is basically what competition is, and I would say most (all?) industries could be characterized this way too.
I think it's more the issue that compatibility extremely difficult in technology in a lot of important ways that makes competition and regulation hard. But more importantly, at least on the internet/search/social media side of things, because it is extremely pervasive and holds huge influence on the population and has a lot of data on the population, which makes it an incredible tool to influence political opinion, so it has become very corrupt.
