So they will have the same judgement for apple right?? And not the same bullshit excuse that since it's even more locked down it's okay for them to do it?

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 19 points 4 weeks ago

Apple got away with it because they were VERY careful to go up to the line without crossing it as well as careful wording of things, unfortunately.

No, because apple's monopoly doesnt count because they're upfront about it being a monopoly.

Which is stupid, but that's how it works apparently
