“the probe is part of a broad investigation that has seen the Justice Department looking into Apple, Google, Facebook, and Amazon.”

Once again, the _actual_ story is that an issue is made against many companies, but the article focuses on “Apple” because clickbait.

Dems shaking down Apple to get them to censor even more and kick them even more $$$ in campaign donations.

Tim Cook et al may find it interesting that Trump did not move against Apple, but Biden’s puppeteers are.

I’ve never owned an apple product and this kinda speaks to why. Too proprietary.

Well, this will shake down Apple. I predict money will now rain down into Democrat coffers ahead of 2022.

"U.S. Department of Justice Likely to File Antitrust Lawsuit Against Apple"

Unless the Demonicrats get a substantial campaign donation beforehand.

It’s never about what they say it’s about. My guess is they have a list of podcasts and apps they want censored.

The Information says there has been a “flurry” of activity as the DOJ has continued to question Apple, its customers, and its competitors about Apple’s control over the iPhone.


Because there are no other mobile phone brands, right? [/s]

Shades of 2000 and Microsoft. That was one of the big catalysts for the dotcom crash.

Must have not paid the proper Baksheesh or did not remember to pass along 10% to “the big guy”

Anti trust against Apple but no anti trust against Google, Facebook and Amazon?
Just how much bribe is The Big Guy looking for in his 2024 elections campaign?

Did Apple forget the 10% for the Big Guy?

Biden’s Democrat DOJ to bring AntiTrust suits against Apple because Apple controls its own iOS and iPhone products security? There can be no monopoly position on a company’s own products! — PING!


DOJ vs. APPLE for AntiTrust?
PING!

If you want on or off the Apple/Mac/iOS Ping List, Freepmail me.

And once again we’re trying to change the definition of monopoly to “makes a lot of money”. Apple doesn’t have a controlling market share in anything. They aren’t a monopoly. They’re big. And yes for app maker the Apple Store can be a pain to navigate. But that’s not a monopoly.

I suspect they are going to put the screws to them to allow the Fed full access to its phone network.
