What this episode covers

The US filed two separate antitrust cases against Facebook, calling for Instagram and WhatsApp to be split off. There's lots for lawyers to argue about here, but more interesting - what would this actually achieve? Would it work? And are the laws coming from the EU this week a better model? (!?)
