If you really are so clueless that you can't even tell the difference
between Apple & Google in terms of Apple's rapacious app market business
model, then you will never be able to understand why Apple is being sued.

Apple will lose because Apple's business model is to be as anti-consumer as
they can possibly get away with being - without being sued for it.

Only drug companies are as anti consumer as Apple is.

With Android, Windows & Linux, you can get your apps from anywhere you
want, without needing to get them from Google, Microsoft, or RedHat.

How could you not know that?
