Here’s what you could have googled, but didn’t - United States v. Microsoft Corp. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft_Corp https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft_C....)
> The U.S. government accused Microsoft of illegally maintaining its monopoly position in the personal computer (PC) market, primarily through the legal and technical restrictions it put on the abilities of PC manufacturers (OEMs) and users to uninstall Internet Explorer and use other programs such as Netscape and Java.
Also of interest with respect to bundling - Microsoft Corp. v. Commission (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Corp._v._Commission https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Corp._v._Commissio...)
> is a case brought by the European Commission of the European Union (EU) against Microsoft for abuse of its dominant position in the market (according to competition law). It started as a complaint from Sun Microsystems over Microsoft's licensing practices in 1993, and eventually resulted in the EU ordering Microsoft to divulge certain information about its server products and release a version of Microsoft Windows without Windows Media Player.
