If Apple, Google, and Microsoft didn't have entrenched platform monopolies, garbage like the Microsoft "AI" spyware likely wouldn't even get built. The market doesn't want what they're selling, but users have no choice but to take whatever abuse the vendors heap upon them, because they can't easily switch to a better product.

And they have monopolies because the US government won't enforce antitrust laws. All technology is political.

(Don't "Linux" me, I've been running it longer than you've probably been alive, I know what it can and cannot do.)
