I think the anti-competitive part is refusing to make iMessage available anywhere other than on apple products, even though there are clearly users who would like to use it on other platforms
- Someone 5y agoDeciding not to serve a market isn’t anti-competitive. I also don’t think keeping the protocol closed so that competitors cannot implement it is anti-competitive, but that’s getting borderline for me. I also think Apple, if they decided to provide android support, should be allowed make that a paid service. After all, it runs on their back-end. I guess even a reasonable pricing scheme would be met with resistance.
