They’re not even in the same league as what MS was doing. At the time of the EU vs MS suit they had a 91% market share, and had only recently come down from a fraction over 95%
THAT is why the EU took action. Apple isn’t in a monopoly position in phones at all, they’re not even the dominant OS.

- newaccount74 3y agoYou are right that Apple does not have a monopoly on phones. But that does not mean that their behaviour is not anti-competitive.
