When near-monopolies, like Google in Internet search and Amazon in online shopping, start infringing on each other's turf, what kind of competition results?

A) pure competition
B) monopolistic competition
C) oligopolistic competition
D) legislated competition

Oligopolistic competition occurs when a few companies dominate a market. When giants like Google and Amazon compete in overlapping areas, they exemplify this form of competition, as both are dominant players in their respective fields and their entry into each other's markets increases competition among a small number of powerful firms.
