Microsoft had as much market share in consumer OS. They didn't get in trouble for that. They got in trouble for killing Netscape by bundling IE and forcing Windows on all devices by charging per device sold regardless of whether Windows was installed or not.

Government intervention to ensure competition rarely happens so maybe a new term to describe that would be good.
