    “threat” is just competition, right?

    Fine 'em, EU!

      The question is when the US government is going to take any measures against them.

      Apple is not that strong in the EU but I think in the US it controls more than 50% of the market and your authorities are simply closing their eyes in front of their anti competitive practices.

        Well, there was recently a judgement on both Apple and Google anticompetitive practices having to do with app stores. Somehow apple won theirs, despite their apps being completely locked to their store while Google lost theirs despite always having supported side loading apps and other app stores already existing. The US legal system is a joke.

        Our anti-competitive practitioners are buying judges as well as new laws.
