npub1j46f9va5qdrmamcwmncew7g8mwekgma386dhws6k04fsnlkqpcpsj23gm7 (npub1j46…3gm7) Thanks, I get what you’re saying, but ‘monopoly’ has become overused lately. If three rairoad companies created competing North American rail networks in the 1800s and one said you could only run trains on its rails if you paid them a commission, would they be a monopoly? Of course not.
Is there any other example in history of a company accused of operating a monopoly entirely within the ecosystem of their own product (iOS) which is clearly not a monopoly itself?
