Almost nobody believes Apple, just like almost nobody believes Trump, when they both loudly claim that the courts are out to get them for no reason. Everyone sensible has always known exactly why Apple excludes competition from their app store, especially since nobody else does this but Apple. The question therefore, will be left to the courts to decide Apple's fate just as the courts are currently left to decide Trump's fate in many cases. > And forget suing; > Tim Cook himself can be arrested and tried criminally for this if the > government ever decided to actually enforce the law. Tim Cook recently settled a half billion dollar lawsuit for lying to investors, where Apple's sordid reputation for lying is well founded. Given Apple has been caught in so many lies recently, what gives you so much confidence that Apple is finally coming clean by telling the truth?
