Not sure if this quote is correct but:

"Monopolies in the U.S. aren't actually illegal. However, they cannot use their monopoly power to gain price or other advantages thanks to the Sherman Anti-Trust Act."

You say that monopolies are "illegal in most countries" - is that true? It's definitely not true in Europe.

And in respect of monopolies and cartels whilst not explicitly illegal in themselves, they come under anti trust or competition laws.
