I'm really struggling to see where the consumer harm is.
- cyberax 2y agoSo companies should just bow down to Google to produce phones? That's the definition of monopoly.
- osti 2y agoAs opposed to bow down to Apple and oh, still can't make an iOS phone?
- cyberax 2y agoApple also is a monopolist.
- scarface_74 2y agoSo two companies in the same market are monopolists?
- guappa 2y agoYou've never heard of "a cartel"?
- scarface_74 2y agoAnd thst is a different word and no evidence has been published to such a point.
- gsck 2y agoYes. Thats called a duopoly.

Imagine a world where it's illegal to grow crops unless you use a particular brand of seeds. Nobody is forcing you to make cereal, but you're going to have a bad time if you can't get the needed components for it. It's not that far off base, either. Heard of Monsanto? Google is basically going down the same path.
