  I gave you a whole essay where I talking to you about anti-trust law, and illegal anti-competitive behavior here, where I referenced actual case law, such as the Epic vs Apple case, where Apple was ruled to have engaged in illegal anti-competitive behavior here. So I will repeat again, my main point, and keep it simple, so you will actually read it. Apple has already, by the court system, ruled to have a large enough control of the market such that it is possible for them to engage in illegal anti-competitive behavior. You tried to imply that this would be impossible, for Apple to currently be having a large enough control of the market, such that it can engage in illegal anti-competitive behavior. And that is wrong. Because the court system already ruled otherwise.

    If you think what you've done is an essay, you should retake some composition classes. This has been more akin to a contextless info-dump. I have neither the time nor the inclination to dive into the transcripts here to figure out exactly how the issues in these cases apply to messaging, a topic I note you studiously avoid. As we used to say: plonk.

      > how the issues in these cases apply This part right here is the important part of how to apply it to apple: "You tried to imply that this would be impossible, for Apple to currently be having a large enough control of the market, such that it can engage in illegal anti-competitive behavior. And that is wrong. Because the court system already ruled otherwise."
