No, it would take a company that realizes that they already are flying close to the envelope and that they are in deep anti-trust shit already. That is, a company with some common sense among the leadership who can see where the wind is blowing. As it is, Google and Apple have no political or business allies and lots of regulatory actions incoming. They might have done well financially so far, but they aren't in a good position.

It would take a company filled with perfect people to avoid having anyone even think about doing the wrong thing. Part of being human is considering the wrong thing and then doing the right thing. (Or not, sometimes.)
