> I've seen people actually reject relationships because they don't date people with "green bubbles".

No, that's stupid. Sorry, not trying to be a jerk, but there's no other way to put it: that's just stupid and not worth any consideration in this argument.

Even putting aside the unlikelihood of what kind of idiot would someone have to be to reject a relationship with an Android user, the basic premise of caring about blue vs green is too shallow to form as any basis of a massive suit like this.

"Apple must be broken up because people think my Android phone isn't cool" ??
