https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherman_Antitrust_Act_of_1890

"The Sherman Act broadly prohibits (1) anticompetitive agreements and (2) unilateral conduct that monopolizes or attempts to monopolize the relevant market."

For example, squashing competition by deleting your competitors search results might be interpreted as an attempt to monopolize the market.

In the context of providing a marketplace (i.e. the App Store), we aren't really looking at "private free speech" any more and so the first amendment does not apply here.

Yes it does: https://searchengineland.com/another-court-affirms-googles-f...

The worst thing about antitrust threads on HN is idiots trying to appear knowledgeable by skimming a Wikipedia article.

That's an interesting case that I was not aware of.

I think your attitude is suboptimal here.
