People freaked at Microsoft because at the time they were essentially a monopoly. Apple has nothing like a monopoly. Do we need to go through this every time someone tries to make this broken comparison?
- izacus 11y agoYes, because it's STILL a shitty excuse for millions of iOS users to not be able to use and install some types of apps on their devices.
- pjmlp 11y agoWhen you deal with a commercial product your are subject to what vendor wants the product to be. Don't like it? Buy elsewhere and help other vendors. I do not care for those that give the money to Apple and then complain.
- Zachery 11y agoAnd Apple doesn't have a monopoly on iOS?
- pjmlp 11y agoAs defined by law, no.
- admiralpumpkin 11y agoWith this (uncommon) usage of the word "monopoly", all companies of course have monopolies on their own products. Honda: monopoly on Accord, etc. This isn't what monopoly means in normal legal usage. edit: typo
