Does the DMA actually do anything about that, except weakening monopolies?

Why would/should it? It serves a specific purpose, just like the GDPR serves a specific purpose and covers another of OPs points.

It's the topic of the thread, so I thought... FWIW I'm not sure that the GDPR really does what people hope, but that's a different topic.

The GDPR does more than any other regulation out there. The world is definitely better for it. Could we do more? Sure, and the DSA is an attempt at that. Could we do it even better? Of course. We pay the bureaucrats in Brussels for a reason, they will come up with something.
