Four More States Join DOJ's Antitrust Lawsuit Against Apple

Indiana, Massachusetts, Nevada, and Washington expand the coalition challenging Apple's alleged smartphone market monopoly.

  • The lawsuit now includes 20 states and Washington D.C., accusing Apple of monopolistic practices.
  • DOJ claims Apple's restrictions harm consumers, developers, and businesses by limiting competition.
  • Key issues include Apple's control over app store policies, digital wallets, and messaging services.
  • Apple denies the allegations, stating it faces significant competition and does not hold monopoly power.
  • The case draws parallels to the historic antitrust lawsuit against Microsoft in the early 2000s.
