Microsoft got into trouble because Windows had a very dominant market position (80%+) iOS does not because there are more Android devices than iOS devices. Regarding your first part about apple having a monopoly on what runs on an iPhone: so does Samsung on fridges/washing machines/ovens, or almost any other embedded system for that matter. My router-maker also does not allow me to put different software on my router, and I can’t run software that hasn’t been allowed explicitly by Microsoft/Sony on an Xbox/Playstation. This is ‘whataboutism’ but why is it only an issue for Apple devices but A-OK and ‘normal’ for every other example?
