Now if the Obama administration was TRULY going after a problem of “monopoly” power in any area of telecommunications, instead of the phony “net neutrality” charge against the telecoms, then you’d think they’d have something to say about Apple in cell phones and Google in Internet browsing and Internet advertising. But, you see, net neutrality is REALLY about putting restraints on the telecoms, to the benefits of Google, Netflix and in Music and Video streaming now Apple as well.

How can Apple be said to have a "monopoly" in cell phones when they have only 20% of the cell phone market regardless of what percentage of profits they take home? The sheer numbers of Android Phones overwhelms Apple, remember? Apple is but one company with a minority presence in the market. . . outnumbered by the 225 Android makers.
