Controlling what happens on your systems is not anti-competitive.

That entirely depends on what part of "your systems" you're controlling. When you control how users of "your systems" can interact with other businesses, it absolutely is. When you say "if you want to create software that runs on our hardware, you have to adhere to all of our guidelines, no matter how absurd, and pay us 30% of any revenue received through this software" that's anticompetitive...

The locked down system of Apple and consoles is hair biggest value add.

LOOOOOOOLOLOL okay so you're not just a fanboy, you're a shill!

Good talk. Bye bye now.
