‘Even stronger’ than imagined: DOJ’s sweeping Apple lawsuit draws expert praise
Medial

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed a lawsuit against Apple, accusing the company of engaging in illegal monopolistic behavior. The complaint alleges that Apple's actions have created a pattern of behavior that harms consumers and makes it difficult to switch from their ecosystem. Experts believe that the DOJ has made a strong case for consumer harm, which was lacking in previous antitrust suits against tech giants. However, proving Apple's dominance and determining effective remedies may pose challenges for the government. The court will also need to consider Apple's arguments for legitimate business reasons behind their decisions. While a breakup of the company is unlikely, injunctive relief to stop the alleged harmful behavior may be sought as a remedy.
