When it comes to tech, it doesn't have to be about breaking up companies. Most tech monopolies can be mitigated by technical solutions that are currently made illegal using a combination of the CFAA as well as copyright law. Make reverse-engineering and emulating official clients legal and suddenly the monopoly problem goes away, because even if Apple only wants their iStuff to work with other iStuff, it will work fine with Android now that it can (legally) reverse-engineer and reimplement the protocol the iStuff uses and pretend to be an iStuff.
