The Department of Justice announced a groundbreaking antitrust lawsuit against Apple that accuses the tech giant of illegally monopolizing the smartphone market.
My fear is what happens if all of this legal lawfare succeeds in preventing Trump from winning. What that means for any future republican or opposition candidate.
How many of you have actually read the story and read the previous suits between Apple and Samsung? Guessing very few. Erick gives half the story in his discussion on the issue and the green bubble is simply an example of their restrictions. His bias took over 100% on this one. But hey… however we can bash Biden is a good reason, accurate or not, right?
Previous suits, the govt doesn’t care about Samsung or chat bubbles, it wants to control Apple anyway it can. No one is forced to buy the IPhone and there are certainly cheaper choices what is funny is that the govt issued phones are IPhones. Why, because they are more secure. Our govt wants to control & snoop on us while allowing foreign actors full rein and via DOJ will do anything to do it as we are seeing. As for Apple they may do themselves in if partner w Google AI etc. I prefer security on my phone.
I use and iPad, but a Samsung Android phone. I think each each is best in class. And because I have that choice, Apple should not be a target from the Biden lawfare crime syndicate.
What DOJ says Green Bubbles hurt my feelings? Wow, I wondered why I cried every time I sent a Text?? The USA as I knew it is slowly and methodically being destroyed by this Administration. Everything has to be “fair”! No it does not!!!
If you do not like Apple and the IOS system then don’t buy it. Apple is not forcing you to and has no desire to. People are screaming “ I have Rights” true but Apple also has the “ RIGHT” to do business without Government interference! Just like every other Citizen or Non Citizen in the US.
Also I EARNED my Privileges to buy Apples Blue Bubbles.
Here’s a GREAT and Novel idea that will make everything all ok! How about the DOJ do its job and Prosecute Criminals and enforce the Law and stay out of Politics!
Wow, so we're finally at the end of criminals for DoJ to pursue, have to create a "hurt feelings" monopoly lawsuit to keep folks employed? Colors of bubbles resulting in "emotional damage"? Yikes! We need a gigantic EMP to knock out all our electronics so we can recognize reality or something.
Obviously, access to (our) data truly is at the heart of the attack, yet on its face, this "monopoly" lawsuit is so far outside regular American's concern one might wonder if some high school child wrote a creative story DoJ got a hold of and decided was actionable.
Wonder if Biden campaign headquarters know DoJ is tanking their Gen-Z voters' favorite company? More yelling at DNC coming from the hologram coming in 3....2....1...
What a croc. "against Apple that accuses the tech giant of illegally monopolizing the smartphone market." There are number of cheaper iPhones out there if one wants them. I buy the iPhone for a reason. The technology it offers.
...and many buy iPhones because Apple makes entry into that environment so much simpler for many. Personally, I stay on Android - I like controlling my data and its access rather than having to work thru Apple's apps and ecosystem to get my stuff, but that's just me.
Apple (brilliantly) created a relatively closed ecosystem, control all the HW, all the SW, etc. so can implement customer features without asking the industry's permission (like we do with Android/Google/MS/etc). This Administration penalizes capitalistic innovation when their lobbyists don't get what they want out of it...
I’m just now learning that there are green and blue bubbles! Color me surprised. I only saw bubbles. My word, this is what the DOJ is spending its time on?
In the early 2010s, Android was considered the ‘cooler’ platform, at least among tech geeks. Apple was for less tech savvy and older people. Not sure what happened to Gen Z; I know Apple is now the popular platform. Emotional damage by green chat bubbles, as a key argument in a DOJ lawsuit?
The Biden administration is coming after our stoves, our cars, and now our phones. Add to that not prosecuting criminals, letting masses of illegals cross our borders, forgiving student loan debt and vilifying homeowners who've been victims of squatting, how can anyone not believe that they are the ones trying to destroy the republic? Oh, forgive me... the democracy, as they so often remind us.

Joe Biden strikes again with more absolutely absurd ideas . Their corruption apparently has no bounds.

Ah yes, the nations leading panty waste attorney is at it again.

I can't imagine the emotional distress if the Android text bubble was red instead of green.

What's not to like about the Democrat party?
Democrats should not run anything, except diversity departments at community colleges.
Not even...
Not even that!
