Realistically, the space that Wikipedia occupies seems to be a more or
less a natural monopoly.

And Wikipedia doesn't even make money per se, so why would anyone even
want to be a competitor to it? There's no market. A market is where
people pay for stuff.

It's not like Wikipedia is abusing its monopoly power. Is it?
