What is commonly called GAFAM are none other than :</p> <ul> <li><strong>G</strong>oogle</li> <li><strong>A</strong>pple</li> <li><strong>F</strong>acebook</li> <li><strong>A</strong>mazon</li> <li><strong>M</strong>icrosoft</li> </ul> <p>These five companies now largely dominate the Internet, and it is very difficult to really do without them.</p>
