> which is every manufacturer would have to provide the means for anyone, including direct competitors, a means to sell software through their device. Nope! This is not true. The court case is only regarding companies that have significant market power. So, if a device manufacturer does not have significant market power, then the court case, which is regarding section 2 if the Sherman anti trust act, would not apply and they would not be forced to do anything. > So what prevents Apple from permitting third party stores but still restricting that only signed and reviewed applications can run? What prevents them is that they have significant and durable market power, and that their behavior is anti competitive.
