Yeah I'm sure Apple is going to get right on that. All the negative press from their shenanigans these years has really changed their attitude thusfar.
- mtgx 14y agoI'm ok with Mozilla's stance on this. I'd be ok with them raising anti-trust issues over this at DoJ, too.
- rgbrenner 14y agoiOS is at 35-40% marketshare.. so there's no chance of an anti-trust suit working. Mozilla would just be wasting resources by attempting it at this point.
- anonymfus 14y agoDepends on market definition. It's around 50% of tablet sales in USA. And it was like 90% soon after start of iPad sales.

The negative press regarding the restriction to the "languages used for iOS development" had them revise that. The negative press around the iOS acceptance process has them make several changes to the whole process. Even in specific app instances, they have reconsidered inclusion etc after some negative press. And they have responded to the negative press about the iOS Maps and the antenna thing. There are other such examples. So this picture that Apple "never changes its ways" is just not true.
