Linux with 100% market share can’t monopolize the entire market because it doesn’t have a centralized distro

You see similar to Google with Redhat/Canonical. If everyone was with them then it would be a problem

    Linux with 100% marketshare means nothing.

    GPL is designed to protect developer rights, not user rights.

    If google packaged your linux distro and sold it through the play store bundled with their own apps and sandboxed everything and called it chromeOS, your rights would not be any better protected.

    Security and privacy involves users making informed choices to protect themselves, full stop.
