The fact that Apple hasn’t ever let you set a default browser on iOS isn’t a good thing.
I fault Apple way more for never even offering the option and not letting you replace apps that don’t give you that option. I don’t really care what Microsoft does with their mail app that I never use because I can replace it.
Apple does not even give you the option to replace the SMS app in iOS, which always opens links in safari.
Also, even if Microsoft were behaving as badly as Apple...if Apple can do it why can’t Microsoft? Are you saying that they should never be allowed to change anything?
Apple doesn’t even have a majority market share in mobile phones. If you don’t like what they do you can just buy another phone. That’s not a monopoly.
That’s not monopoly. Monopoly means that effectively there is only one supplier and in the mobile phone market there are at least two, of which Apple is not even the largest.
Just because it is an important player it is hardly dominant.
Also, just because you don’t deem a market important anymore (and many people would beg to differ with your opinion) doesn’t change wether a party is a monopoly in that market or not.
I hope they lose and are forced to change their store rules so we can sell apps outside their store because whatever label you apply to their behavior, it's despicable IMO.
