I don't understand why you're trying to pick Samsung out. If Google strongarm Samsung and Motorola and LG and say "you can't put Google apps, Google Maps, Google play store on your phones anymore and can't get Android updates from Google unless you XYZ" that has a greater reach than Samsung alone has, doesn't it? And that is a reach that Google can have, and Samsung, Motorola, LG alone cannot have, right? And by reaching over multiple Android phone sellers, that has at least a similar, but likely much greater reach than anything Apple can do, doesn't it? Whether a company can be sued for being a monopoly in a given jurisdiction isn't so interesting to me, as whether they can influence ~80% of the worldwide smartphone market; If they can do that but you can't sue them for being a monopoly in Tuvalu that has no bearing on anything interesting. |
