re: #15 Love-Child of Cassandra and Sisyphus

The only monopoly Apple has is on profits in the smartphone industry. So apparently the DOJ is saying that is the true market, thus making Apple open to anti-trust. Even though it represents a minority in the marketplace, the DOJ seems to want to redistibute Apple’s profits to the large developers.

Like so many anti-trust cases, most of this will likely be moot by the time a judgement is made. Already huge parts of the complaint are moot or close to being. I expect, as time goes on this will become more of an attempt to make all the IP Apple has created feeely open to any large developer. Apple makes a shitt on of money and the big developers want it (likely all). And will not pass on savings to the customers. Nothing in the case seems to be geared to actually helping the customers.
