I'm not sure if I agree that Google's future intent is the bigger threat versus Apple already using it.
>So as long as they do not produce 50% of PCs or 50% of phones
Apple's market share in the US smartphone market is at almost 58%.
>It's like with Monopolies and Cartels
Yes, and I'm not saying Google shouldn't be looked into if necessary, but Apple has a 100% monopoly on iPhones unlike Google on Android and PC where you can switch browser.
If Apple is stopped, there are no reasons to go after Google, as it would also be illegal for them to do the same. Two birds with one stone – and Apple definitely also needs to be stopped.

Under condition that you are not using anything other than Windows/ChromeOS - then no matter how much you switch the browser the OS stack will still not be certified - like DRM always fails to work on my end. >If Apple is stopped, there are no reasons to go after Google, as it would also be illegal for them to do the same. You are missing the point for me - Apple is just somewhat big¹ hardware company with niche¹ system. If you want to fight them because they have enormous power on your market - power to you, but from global perspective "no reasons to go after Google" is clearly misguided. ¹from my country perspective
