Yes yes. Apple Bad pls upvote me.
But in this case I pointed out some things that are wrong with the DOJ's complaints, one thing that is valid, and asked questions about two that nobody, and my searches, have answered. They seem to also be completely wrong on the DOJ side.
I doubt you use their products or will be affected by them being altered in any way, but I do and will, so this case interests me as do the details.
I use a MacBook pro daily but even if I didn't major lawsuits against monopolies affect me and everyone else
Fortunately for you, this lawsuit doesn't involve the Mac.
Fortunately for the rest of us, Apple doesn't have anywhere near a monopoly in any industry, which is honestly where this case should be dismissed.
If you have to take a specific month out of the year, limit the region, and define a category as "performance" to get your numbers fudged and you still only get to 70% you're not exactly making a strong case for a monopoly.
Noonono see apple not bad all times
That's fair. Corporations are people. And people are the worst.
