"Buy your mom an iphone" are fighting words LMAO
😂😂😂
Tim is cooking
lol what do you expect the CEO of Apple to support a competitor?
Love him or hate him that's a legendary response lmaoooo
The smug way in which Cooke said that makes my blood boil.
type c in new iphone 15 opened a float gate 😂
That was because of the EU, nothing to do with the US
@@austinhernandez2716true
Walled Garden HIGHLY illegal, esp. when it comes to silly proprietary connectors, and prevent you from paying with YOUR bank, and charging people more to buy/use e-books on Amazon and such.
Plus the DMA in Europe
So you didn't noticed they already started to change their products to USB-C before the regulation.. iPad and Macbook already was USB-C, do you think they will stop at half way..? They just gived enough time for accessory makers (because iPhone have way more accessory like iPad and Macbooks..) to prepare to the change.. a sudden decision can bankrupt thousands of company.. like they have 10000 lighting Thermal camera in stock, what they will never sell after the change.. or do you think people will buy a $300 thermal camera when they know they will change their phone soon, and it will be unusable, so they need to buy one more.. because thermal camera became unusable with adapter.. and that is just one example.. so they did it on the right way, gived enough time for the manufacturers to empty their warehouses (on that way the things will become to e-waste at least a few years later, and nobody will bankrupt..)
Across the pond, we have no idea what the green and blue text bubbles mean, we just use WhatsApp on iphones and androids.
By Pond do you mean either the Pacific or Atlantic ocean? Lol.
When What's App was 0.99cents on App Store, best dollar I ever spent.
Exactly
@@karthikv2070 🤣🤣🤣 The UK for short
Same here in Brazil
That's just unfair, apple would never engage in any anticompetitive or anti consumer behaviour. Just ask their lawyers!
Besides iPhone will break if they force them to work with other devices 🤷♀️
It's just the way it is
apple fought for many years against right to repair for a reason corporate greed
I think right to repair is where tthey deserve to be sued for, not this garbage. I for one, use apple devices in part for the strong security a closed ecosystem provides. The scary thing will be that if there's a pathway to download an app without the app store, then it's possible you open a message or click a website and malware is downloaded without you even knowing. Right now, there's physically no code path for this to happen. Create the path in code, and someone somewhere will find a way to exploit it. Apple devices will be way less secure.
@@heyaisdabomb Yeah the right to repair thing is a tricky one. Apple ended up choosing its current path for 2 reasons.
First was security. Obviously it wouldn't do to have someone sabotage your fingerprint or faceID scanner to get instant access to your phone. So they started by securing everything from the secure enclave to the fingerprint scanner and serializing all the components so that if even the wires between them were swapped out that functionality would brick. Since their phones are used by people of all walks of life including people with government secrets this is kind of a reasonable consideration IMHO.
Second was that a multi billion dollar industry started to pop up where people would buy iPhones, harvest parts out of them, break the phone and then return it under warranty. The stolen parts would then be used to fix other phones to be sold or just outright sold to other repair shops. Apple had an absolute fortune stolen from them by these people and wanted to protect themselves against it. Again, kind of a reasonable response in my opinion.
Honestly it does suck. But I'm more mad at people who perform espionage and steal endless amounts of money from Apple by harvesting parts out for ruining everything. In a perfect world none of this would be necessary and we'd have right to repair as a result but it's kind of like seeing a store close down after being repeatedly robbed in a high crime area. Yeah it sucks for the community that it's gone but are you going to be mad at the company or at the criminals who drove them to close up shop?
@@heyaisdabombI agree. The repair issue is an entirely different thing. But to force Apple to open up its App Store to whoever is crazy. There is a reason Apple products have the least amount of Malware and virus issues. They keep downloadable software very strict/limited. This could lead to all kinds of security risks.
@@heyaisdabomb disagree, I should be able to install what i wish on a device ive paid for. its already possible to download apps outside of the appstore WITHOUT jailbreaking or exploiting the device. (look into developer mode and sideloading; altstore and sideloadly are good tools for this) the issue is apple makes this process needlessly cumbersome after the apps are installed. apps expire and need to be renewed after a week (to get around this you need to install a server a pc you use that renews and resyncs these apps every week) and your only allowed to install 3 apps if you dont have a developer account ($100 a year). honestly, if apple removed these two restrictions i would be completely fine with there being no official support for third party appstores, as it would allow those who really wanted to build and install their own apps.
@@user-xh1fo7fv5rI've been using Android for over a decade and not ONCE have I ever gotten a virus or malware. Stop this security narrative. Android 10, 11, 12 and onward each have gotten consistently better with security. With Samsung phones, there's basically two offerings of security. One coming from Samsung, which is a manufacturer offering and the other is from Google. There's PLENTY of features that are of equal if not superior to Apple.
People who have iPhones are just incompetent of knowing what to do with an Android phone.
How about Ticketmaster???
Or Boeing or Verizon and AT&T and Comcast each in their area are monopolies. So what’s the big deal here with Apple?
YES
Watch the press conference. AG Garland explains this well.
Having a monopoly isn't the problem. Using your power as a monopoly to lock out other businesses is. I'm not saying AT&T and Comcast don't engage in anticompetitive practice. Only that Apple is the most egregious offender here.
@@celebrityrogbecause apple probably refused to give donations lol
How is no one talking about a certain company who’s CEO has the world’s biggest Yatch 😂
Remember when the US Gov. asked Apple to created a back door for the police to access locked iPhones and encrypted data and Apple answered no and doubled down on the importance of privacy? That is what started this lawsuit.
I was to most degree an “Android Fanboy” until I saw this stance that Apple made against the US Gov. The next smartphone that I purchased was an iPhone and never looked back.
Yeah yeah belive that PR BS no one can say no to FBI they boasted about it but then gave them access privatly
It isn’t, that was many years ago now, under an entirely different administration and it was an entirely different part of the government. The FTC and Justice Department have been ramping up antitrust enforcement since the start of the Biden administration, mostly championed by Lina Kahn, who’d gotten a bipartisan confirmation and now in the Republican Party is cheerleader by Josh Hawley and seems to be reviled by other Republicans Senators, but is still technically bipartisanly popular and is probably honestly one of the few people in government where pretty much everything she’s done has been pretty popular, aside from with the mega corps who are affected by this
@@Sealambertboth of you are corporate bootlickers 😂
@@Sealambertthat's a pretty dumb reason to change from Android to Apple but okay.
I get some of the things mentioned but I do not get the part about the apple ecosystem. It seams the same as wanting PlayStation controllers to work on Xbox.
It's more like having a multiplat game on Xbox, Playstation and PC and then Playstation only accepting payments for that game done on their platform and payments done on other platforms being ignored even though otherwise it all works cross-platform.
Xbox and PlayStation is a duopoly that needs to be looked in too.
The part about apple watches not working with androids isnt even fair, many FitBit and Google Pixel watch devices are Android Exclusive
Sorry to break your bubble, but there is nothing like ecosystem, it's just called internet. Non-apple devices communicate with each other like internet but apple devices only communicate with other apple devices like an intranet, intentionally build walls. Apple devices act like a angry women who refuses to talk with other people not because she can't, she can, she just intentionally chooses not to do so, amd everyone else just talks with everyone normally in an open "ecosystem".
@@cassiuscartlandbut that is because of apple making it almost impossible to use any other watch than their own. So who's fault is that?
Convenient how everyone forgets Microsoft was in the same place 25 years ago. Google is in the same place with advertising right now.
No one forgot. They just didn't mention it in this video. Watch the DoJ's press briefing. They alluded to it there. Or watch the verge
Well technically the Microsoft case was completely different. Microsoft was using their influence to dictate to small businesses what they could and couldn’t pre install on their computers for their own clients. Microsoft didn’t create the computers and didn’t own the companies selling hardware with their OS. But they were bullying small OEM vendors to force them to not install apps for their customers despite selling them tools to do just that. Google did essentially the same thing and got in trouble for it too.
However in Apple’s case they make the hardware, the software, maintain the closed ecosystem and own their apple stores. So the Microsoft lawsuit would be more like as if they started demanding that they would only sell office on the iPhone if apple banned all competing office apps and stopped making their own. It’s not Microsoft’s place to do that and they’d get sued if they tried.
@@drenathorThe hardware that's been basically universal between all phones for years now btw.
@@Svangen1 I see, many media houses eventually talked about it.

Truer words never spoken
Facts
But Samsungs are more expensive than iPhones nowadays.. lmao
S24 ultra $1300. 15 pro max $1200
this is the free market and there are options to avoid all of this, don't buy Apple, what happens is that loser companies who can't compete due to limitations of their own are being petty and whining like little losers, asking daddy government to intervene in the free market.
Apple can do all of those things because the free market is choosing Apple, if the free market decided that what Apple is doing is wrong then we would all vote with our wallets and so far we have chosen that Apple is ok.
Is the classic loser who can't play sports claims the one who can is cheating.
@@EricRamz And I have an Android phone that cost $400 that does everything I need it to do. Not all Androids are Samsung, there are many other smaller indie phone manufacturers out there that offer devices for affordable prices. That's the thing about Android, it can be used anywhere.
I use iPhone and Mac…so yeah I’m an Apple user. But the issues of allowing devices to communicate well enough cross platform is something that should be fixed. Yes, it’s business. But I do believe the simplest issue of them all with the green/blue bubbles thing should be ironed out for users.
It's more complex than that. There's reasons from a computer science stand point that these things are done as well. Apple created it's own picture and video files that is inherently compressed by up to 80%, called .HEIC files. There's a size limitations in SMS messages that have. to be ironed out, and all the blue message is doing is telling you, is this going through imessage i.e. the internet or SMS, which is through your cell carriers network (not the internet). This gives customers more information, and helps me to know what I can and can't do because android doesn't have the same features as ios. Non apple devices or third party apps opens the ecosystem to malware and viruses. Apples closed ecosystem provides a strong layer of security, even the government struggles to break in as we saw in the San Bernadino terrorist case. You can't mandate a company to build software to work with other devices. Are they going to sue LG because smart things only works with LG devices? What about other companies with their own proprietary systems?
@heyaisdabomb thats bogus. Apple could support RCS that would actually make it more secure for Apple users. Messaging already exists with other devices so it should be to the latest highest standard
As long as u can make calls and send text messages. That’s all that is required for a PHONE! The computer/software tech is different. If u want to be part of the Apple eco system, buy an apple product. As far as the “tap to pay” that Apple hv more of a grasp, then I would ask who came up with the tech? When iPhones first came out, they had an exclusive deal with AT&T for the first few years, so u had to be with AT&T.
Apple already announced, the day after this lawsuit was filed, that they will update iMessage to be compatible with Rcs by next year. So the fact that they can update their app so fast blows holes in your argument. Let alone announcing the update THE DAY AFTER YOU ARE SUED. You should watch the DOJs breakdown. The issue is that apple deliberately makes OTHER devices technology not work or less performative on iPhone. And because of the bad experiences with other devices apple users then shop for apple devices to save the headache. But thats the problem. The DOJ isnt saying you cant have proprietary tech. They are saying you cant build into your device faulty performance if you are connecting to a non apple device, app, product, browser, which apple 100% does hence why it lost in the EU. The USA is just copy pasting the case cause all the evidence is there.
It's beyond that, there's a monopsony side too we're developer and sellers are being controlled as well.
I as much as I dislike "what-about-isms," Private equity firms in the US are buying up all the single-family homes before they come on the market so they can rent them out at sky-high rates. It's nearly impossible for first-time home buyers to buy a house, which is historically the #1 way wealth is built in the middle class. My point is, there are more important ways that the government should be protecting citizens from corporate greed.
This comment should be pin
Are there good laws on the books already to go after that though? The Justice Department can only enforce laws that are already there, I think that’s a problem that Congress needs to do something about
Didn’t they already announce support for RCS, later in the future?
Apple has been changing (RCS, lower comissions on app store, usb-c) because of pressure. They know their time is limited to continue as a monopoly. They took small actions to avoid situations like this lawsuit. But it was a long time coming
That what I was thinking so the whole texting argument wouldn’t really be a thing. Correct me if I’m wrong
@@edgingnothing4070 RCS support would bring security and standards to cross-OS chats, but the green/blue bubble will stay. Blue bubbles are crucial for Apple. They're not letting that go.
@@ronaldbardalez6318But all the other functions will be fixed. High quality images and videos, plus much better group chats between iMessage and Android. The text bubble thing is meaningless, as long as the experience is flawless.
WE ADDED USB C...WHAT MORE DO YA WANT???

@@sdfjsdtons of wasted space on the iPhone hardware
@@the_mariocrafter I. Don't. Care!
@@sdfjsd I was saying that the LACK of SIM card slot on the USA models without any benefit is a waste of space. SIM card slots are essential for a phone’s operation and we need microSD as well.
@@the_mariocrafter Oh I thought you were saying putting a SIM card slot in iPhone is a waste of space
What people don't understand is that, DOJ is not asking Apple to make worst products. They are asking them to give options/choice to users. If Apple products work together nicely, then good for them. But they should not make non-apple items painful. For example, if Google decides to give only 240p on CZcams when played in an Apple device and gives 4K to non-apple device, technically, they are not breaking any laws. However, they are making the user experience so painful on Apple devices that will make people switch to non-apple devices. Wouldn't you complain that Google is doing this intentionally? If Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft and all big tech companies do the same, then everyone will complain that they are targeting Apple by giving inferior experience and better experience on Android devices. Apple is doing the same by making non-apple experience painful and people don't realize that. Apple is subconsciously making people to use only their products instead of giving them a choice.
@@O._.O._.Ofor what ? Twitter videos ?
@@O._.O._.OLol okay, nice dream world you’re living in
There’s no force. You can either buy an iPhone or an android, the choice is 1,0000% yours.
@@O._.O._.O That is the current status because Apple has established themselves as a big player. If Google, Meta, Microsoft systematically did this for a period of time in all apps, then you wouldn't even consider Apple. Say, tomorrow, none of the google, meta and microsoft apps works on Apple devices. How many days would you use Apple for? I bet 50% of the people would switch from Apple in an instant. In an open internet world, everyone has to play nicely with everyone. Even in DOJ's case, they mentioned that Apple was the main benefactor when DOJ brought their case against Microsoft.
@@ArborSeasit’s wild to me how people don’t understand this.
Yeah the App Store needs to change
That would be very nice. 👍
Excellent explanation. Thanks
Truth in fact is every company would want to become a monopoly like Apple.
And for once we have a legitimate for governments to exist, to prevent any business from becoming a monopoly.
All businesses want to eliminate the competition. That means they all want to become monopolies. We have a tool to protect us against monopolies...it's call the government.
If unchecked, yes. This is why we have government.
True. And it's the government's job to prevent companies from becoming monopolies. That's what they're doing.
@@xiphoid2011you’re naive if think that comment is the reason. Government keeps pressuring Apple to give them a back door to spy on US citizens but Apple shows middle finger. This is the way US government bullies you.
This whole suit is ridiculous !! There are dozens of other phones out there in the market that people can buy. Apple doesn’t force you into buying an Apple product, that’s a decision the consumer makes. If anything Apple should be sued for price gauging its customers and that’s about it. People buy Apple products because they feel safe in doing so.
Well, by this logic they could also gun for Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo for the “monopoly” of game stores on their own hardware. This is just ridiculous.
The issue I guess is the lack of other companies going toe to toe with apple
Thi yes?? They would. On a Playstation your locked down and forced to buy stuff at extreme prices for 0 reason. They also control everything that goes into the ecosystem.
It's different somewhere like windows. Linux or android. Where u can freely install whatever you want. And in fact has been a norm for years
By the way. Yk how apple tries to make sideloading seem scary ?
Microsoft does too! If a developer doesn't pay a 100$ fee your computer will tell u windows protected your pc
This is long overdue
You are dumb 😂 but WT Samsung users are always that…
Apple is less like Microsoft's anti-trust, and more like AT&T's anti-trust.
It’s nothing like AT&T, assuming you’re referring to the dissimination of Bell. Apple is not the only company selling phones and the software to go with it so they are not a monopoly in that sense. It’s much more like Microsoft, although in fairness, MS was pretty darn close to being like AT&T since they made sure the OS and Windows Explorer were the only software installed on “all” PCs. AT&T/Bell was different because they were literally the only company that could provide home phone service back in the day.
@@housepianist Honestly I don't think this is really like either one. AT&T had a true monopoly and there wasn't any real competition and all the existing phone lines were owned by one company that wouldn't share. It was broken up as a result. Whereas Android outsells iPhone every year. By definition it's not a monopoly.
With Microsoft, they had an OS that ran on other people's hardware and released tools to let manufacturers roll out custom versions of Windows pre-loaded with drivers, software, wallpaper packs and more. But when people started bundling firefox into the OEM versions of Windows Microsoft suddenly tried revoking licenses, bullying creators, and more. They released tools designed for a purpose and then intimidated people for using them when they used them according to the license.
With Apple, They built nearly everything from the ground up. The hardware, software, app store, APIs, etc. Apple has never made any secrets about how closed their ecosystem is and has marketed it as a hand curated, gated community by design. And people buy it knowing this up front. Problem is, competitors don't like playing by Apple's rules and have been aggressively lobbying the government to tell Apple how they have to do business. And now the government is getting involved.
And guess what they were able 40 years later to merge back with 6 of the 7 baby bells they broke up into.
Bs lawsuit
Bs lawsuit
how the table turned hahahahhaha
Curious are the government personnel also using iPhones?
this lawsuit can have a great impact on the company, i hope it helps them to become more efficient and better, not just on profit making.
Damn, how much more better do you want them to be? They’ve created life-changing technology (and continue to invest heavily in R&D)…

@@td3053 I know what it’s like for customers with android phones. Constant viruses. Bricked phones. So idk how to feel about it because I know it’s going to cause a LOT of issues with security.
@@Crowski I mean this is obviously a constant miscommunication because my entire life of having Samsung phones I never had a virus or a "brick phone." What I can say from experience is when I decided to take a hiatus from Samsung and tried an iPhone, I hated it and went back to a Samsung after 2 weeks. Apple phones are (as offensively as possible) simple machinery for very simple minded "cookie cutter" people. You can't do anything on those phones like you can do on Samsung. It's actually laughable how the common misconception for people with Android phones is that we are "poor" or lack "sophistication." Honestly, my Samsungs (S's, Notes, and Folds) have always been way more expensive than any iPhone and was actually a great devices for people that can think outside of the Apple secret garden. I feel the cult of Apple are the people that can't drink anything else but the Apple juice and then judge you for doing so. It's not our fault you folks can't think freely for yourselves and lack the capabilities to voice wanting more out of your device. Let's face it, your device can't do much but what Apple wants you to do, which is very very limiting.
@@td3053 I get what you’re saying cuz I’ve had nearly every flagship available in the USA lol. 😂 I work in the tech industry and help customers with their devices.
There’s things with Apple that I LOVE. The security. The ecosystem. Little things in the software that just make sense that Samsung can’t do.
Example:
iPhone - open messages, tap on contact, click camera, take photo, edit and send.
Android- you can’t do that. You have to take the photo, edit it, open gallery or the message then add the photo and send.
It’s annoying.
Or say I take a screen shot.
I can’t just take it, edit it copy and send on a Samsung. I have to save it then attach it and then I have to delete it from my gallery.
Most people aren’t going into developer options and tweaking their phone.
They aren’t overclocking their phones.
They don’t even know about Samsung themes….
Majority of people don’t know tech. All they know is call, email, message and the common social media stuff.
That’s why Apple succeeds.
They’ve perfected the phone and ecosystem.
Android feels clumsy when you compare it to Apples software.
I remember I can't transfer files between iphone 1 and samsung via bluetooth.
This has similarities with what occurred with AT&T and the Bell Monopoly, that too, took the Federal Courts to change the way they operated and did business. There are some recent mega-operations that should also be checked sooner than later. Let's see if enough consumers see the issue.
And yeah that turned out so well didn’t it. I won’t even use ATT because of their poor service and I mean customer service. Haven’t used them I about 20 years now and will not.
In the case of the Bell breakup, it was because these services were land based access, so consumers were unable to choose from providers directly and were forced to use whatever Bell decided was best. Wireless services today are not restricted by the local service area in that way, which broadens available choice.
@@napynap That might be true where you live but is not where I live, each service has sections they control.
Users are always free to leave.
Users are enabling this to happen
Exactly my thoughts. It’s the users’ choice of what devices they’re comfortable to use
apple is doing nothing wrong. People buy their products. So what?
More users buy them because of the Walled Garden therefore sending them more money because it's much more of an inconvenience to be outside of an apple ecosystem when all your friends and families are. If there is a proven trends that it's easier to buy their products and they are inconvenience than the day-to-day life or Social Circles because they don't, then that means changes must be made
Actually.. Apple is making it harder to leave.. I have an iPhone with airpods and an apple watch. If I suddenly decide I want to go back with android, I lose a lot of features with my apple accessories, making it a big inconvenience to switch...
how delusional can you be to think apple isn't doing anything wrong?
@@Black_Magic_Pearl lots of IT devices and others are proprietary to certain brands. Why single out Apple?
It's a free market to create products that work with your own products.
Competing for releasing the same old tech each new product.

Because Apple Music is a paid service, whereas iMessage is not 😂
@@kapilprajapati6525 I have Google Messages on my iPhone your point is not valid. The reason its not is they stated in court that if they did it there would be nothing locking folks into the ecosystem. That came out during the Epic trial. Former employees told them years ago to do it.
@@kapilprajapati6525 Exactly
Actually, Apple is adopting GSMA-standard RCS starting with (probably) iOS 18.0. That right there ensures more compatibility with Android, but the question is will Google update their own RCS messaging to be fully-compliant with the GSMA standard?
@@Sacto1654 you have to understand that they could have adopted RCS from the get-go but they didn't, because their own messaging incentivises people to buy iPhone's.
Same with type-c, if not for EU they would have still be using lighting.
How about looking at this from the other side as explained by the folks at Front Page Tech (FPT).
Samsung has the Samsung wallet which is not just exclusive to Samsung but certain models too. Like if this goes through that means google wallet and Samsung wallet are gonna have to be changed too
If Apple has a monopoly on iPhones, does that mean McDonald's has a monopoly on Big Macs?
Hmnm, you can go to Wendy's, Burger King, Subway.....the choices go on, How about phone platforms?
@@LifeBeautifulMessbut he has a point… you can’t get a Big Mac at Wendy’s. So that should probably be the next lawsuit. McD’s should not be the only ones able to sell a double burger with a bun in the middle 🤪
Best analogy I have found so far. I’m just as confused as you are.
Users dnt really care about this! Jst government needs money
no. McDonald's doesn't allow others to use their space to sell specific items.
Such a space (like App store). is the reason lot of people buy iphone.
so not only are they profiting off these apps by getting more customers, they are then forcing these developers to pay 30% of any transaction through their app as "service tax".
it's pure monopoly
Frivolous lawsuit.
Great job Carey (sp)!
iMac's that are old cannot download new software when the hardware can fully support it. This causes waste of the hardware when there is no issue.
No one is stopping anyone from buying Android instead of Apple (compare Comcast internet, how certain places don't have any other option), so in my opinion (not a legal professional), allegations of monopoly falls flat.
They're not talking about a Monopoly on the phone market. They're talking about the predatory market practices that force people who are with Apple to only buy apple products. Say you buy an Iphone and Airpods cuz ya like them But you don't want an Apple Watch, BUT you like the features of a new Samsung Galaxy Watch. APPLE should allow them to use that watch in full capacity on their systems and not limit its functionality because it's not and Apple Watch. Why should someone have to buy a WHOLE NEW PHONE AND EARBUDS because they can't use the functions they want to.on the watch they prefer? It's not a Monopoly in the sense that their the only phone choice. It's in a sense that if you DO get one you HAVE to buy their products and invest more. Like why do I need to buy their special charger still when the cable is the universal USB-C now? BECAUSE APPLES DONT CHARGE FAST ON NORMAL USB-CS EVEN IF ITS THE SAME TECHNOLOGY
Obviously. If you just watched the video you would know it is not about that.
@@cragl3yman343the fault falls completely on you. You bought Apple products and then decided to buy android products, but now you’re mad that android products don’t work well with apple products? Why does a company need to necessitate that their product work well with others? They built the dam thing and decided what to do with their system. If buying that Samsung watch is so important, then why not leave the Apple ecosystem all together?
If apple wasn’t a 2 trillion dollar company, then this wouldn’t even be a thing. 🤦 smh
@@cragl3yman343bruh it’s a choice not by force. I use an iPhone and a windows laptop and other non apple products based on my choice not force. Like how other companies products work perfectly when all used with other products they make in the ecosystem, same as Apple. So that’s the problem here? Cos this law suit is so damn pointless and stupid. What they need to fight for is right to repair not this monopoly BS
Apple has made messaging/texting with Android users pretty terrible by design though. I would at least like to see Apple adopt and embrace RCS, something the company says it will do. If this accelerates adoption of RCS in iOS, it’ll be a big step forward for cross platform texting/messaging
Like I commented on a similar video earlier, no one is forced to buy and use Apple products. If there's something about the way that Apple does things (and I certainly don't agree with a lot of what they do), switch to something else. This is a free market, after all. I can't stand that Apple charges so much for a simple RAM upgrade, but the choice to pay it when I bought my Mac Mini was still mine. It's funny how it's the most successful companies that the government tends to go after. But I guess the DOJ doesn't have anything better to do at the moment, so why not try to get some extra cash from a multi-trillion dollar company? Apple won't notice the loss of a couple billion dollars.
God forbid the government do something useful like putting a stop to the price gouging going on at the grocery store. If they want to go after big corporations that would certainly do more good than going after Apple.
Well said 👏
You haven't watched any of the videos or the law suit? the whole point is that you ARE forced to buy it, using a variety of techniques (walled garden, social norms, quality reduction, incompatibility with other products/phones)...That is literally the whole point of this. They use all tactics to make sure that you are an outcast if you don't have it, and with the amount of market share they have they can do it. Even charging so much for a RAM upgrade, if other tech companies could offer that service the price would be lower benefiting you the consumer. I cannot understand why anyone with any sense would defend a Big Company monopoly
@@CrimsonPhoenix15because the wall garden is a good thing. All apple products is the best if not all the most of product segments. So it is more of a choice. Every company has its own ecosystem, and apple users chooses apple ecosystem.
In the wall garden, users feel more secure and has sense of PRIVACY. And most users want to keep it that way.
Before there was an issue of COMPUTER VIRUS. And the best thing to avoid computer virus is to buy macbook. The less that apple is OPEN, the better the security.
iPhones and Macs receives updates FASTER and for longer years, but cannot be the same with androids and windows. So… uhm. Thats the “wall” that apple made.
@@pakkoignacio1424 "All apple products is the best" - no, its just your only option not the best. I figured out the reason people like you argue for them is because apple is all you know. Its the whole frog in a well analogy, and Apple knows this thats why they can trickle feed you features and innovations and then you act like its the greatest thing when its been out for 10 years.
In the walled garden they have a sense of privacy compared to what? I have both the iphone 14 and samsung note 20 even with the iphone as my main phone they offer me the same privacy.
Faster and longer updates compared to what? Google pixel offers faster and longer updates, Samsung is slower but just as long updates? You speak as though android is 1 device/company. What windows product are you comparing it to? again hundreds of devices. MAC is outright better for design, while Windows is outright better for gaming. The rest you can make an argument for either and is preference.
Virus? you're really going back 10 years ago, its not a thing anymore. Yes there was a time MAC was the safest but now thats just a standard. It had nothing to do with their walled garden but their software which was ahead of its time.
I can't comprehend how anyone with a little bit of brain cells can think a monopoly is great. Apple benefited from microsoft losing their monopoly and then turned around and did the same thing now people praise it? The only advantage the walled garden provides is seamless transitions of their products. Which if their products are truly better won't effect them. If they allowed other smart watches to integrate with iphone properly instead of restricting features like they do right now and their product (iwatch) was the best for users then it would remain the best. Stopping other companies like garmin from even trying is the main issue and if you don't see that, then you aren't smart enough for me to respond to again.
I heard a 1999 apple commercial of somebody saying we have a trouble with apple
I think if this the same why console exclusives exist, I think it’s good for competition from other tech brands
Will they do this with Tesla too?
Wdym? Tesla is literally the opposite. They just recently opened their entire charging network. They also recently released their 48 volt architecture design for every other company to use for free. Tesla wants the EV space to exceed.
Only problem I see with them is repairing cars. It’s hard for owners to do so, but they do allow plenty of third party company to do so if they get licensed from Tesla. Honestly that’s a good thing because 99% of Tesla owners have no clue how to work on their own cars and have none of the tools necessary to do so. Very different from ICE cars.
Maybe I missed something that the DOJ has to check. But Apple is a much bigger problem.
It seems like DOJ has nothing else better to do.
only reason I didn't switch to 15 was the crappy type law
Interesting
This stupid iMessage thing. I guess the US forgot about SMS?? It is the standard communication infrastructure for all mobile devices. iMessage is a feature to iOS as the Big Mac is a specialty at McDonalds. If you want a Big Mac, you go to McDonalds. If you want iMessage, buy an iPhone.
What's stupid about it? RCS has been a thing for years and it's better than SMS in every way. Apple needs to at the very least support RCS so that talking between Android and iOS is better for everyone. Instead, they force you to either get on a different app, or get an iPhone. Most people in the US use the messaging app that comes with the phone.
@@livedreamsg I agree RCS should be included but the wall garden of iMessage should not change. I said it before, you go to McDonald’s to buy a Big Mac. I use iPhone for iMessage. SMS is the standard communication, if RCS becomes the new normal then that will replace SMS.
@OfficialWindowsTV RCS has already began to become the standard.
iMessage isn't the problem, the lack of RCS support is.
However, I get your point.
It’s crazy because you can literally turn iMessage off and strictly text sms

Great informative video - background music first two minutes was a distraction
I’m a little conflicted over this so-called lawsuit. If Apple wants to make a product like an iPhone and create the best software for it, that shouldn’t be an issue. And the fact that Apple has sold so many of them is an indication that people actually LIKE the product and use it. Isn’t that what any business wants?
Now, it can be debatable whether Apple is intentionally preventing third-parties from utilizing Apple software and apps by making them “incompatible” with other phone makers, but let’s take Ford and Toyota as car manufactureres. What if Ford sued Toyota for not making parts that fit Ford vehicles? Pretty ridiculous. BUT…the fact is that you cannot use Toyota parts in Ford vehicles and vice versa. Genuine Toyota parts for Toyota vehicles. Genuine Ford parts for Ford vehicles. Both companies sell a lot of vehicles but would either of them be accused for trying to be a monopoly because they won’t design parts for all vehicles?
Seems to me that when the EU forced Apple to use C-ports on their latest iPhones (and the whole Epic Games debaucle), it has created a new “bloodsport” that allows anyone with a beef against Apple to come after them. Seriously, I don’t agree with Apple charging so many high fees for the “privilege” of utilizing Apple’s technology but there is not a single law that says Apple can’t do that. We can complain all day long about the “apple tax” but where’s the anti-trust element? Why should Apple want to dumb down their products and services just so other manufacturers and developers can use them with their products for nothing?
Apple has bought hundreds of companies over the decade that have developed great technology and they have used it to make their products better. Those companies didn’t have to sell. I’m sure many companies refused offers from Apple. And Apple has developed really good products in their own and if they don’t want to sell or share, why should they? To me, it just sounds like the government doesn’t like the power and finances that Apple has so they have to be taken down a notch. Even if the DOJ is successful in their lawsuit, what will that mean for other companies? Do businesses have to make products and services that their competition can use too? It makes no sense and can set an unsettling precedent.
majority of people use iphone just for its brand.
Yeah what's next? Nintendo switch buyers realizing they can't by PS5 exclusives on the switch store and crying to the government to ban sales of nintendo devices because they couldn't possibly have been expected to make informed decisions with their money? Like if having open eco systems is that important to you... buy an Android?
Thats clearly not the same analogy, you can use third party parts in most cars so Toyota can make Ford parts if it wanted to. Ford can make 'Ford Genuine' parts but it can't say Third party parts cannot be used. The customer then can decide if it wants to pay for the cheaper third party parts or the genuine ones. So that clearly is not a monopoly.
Apple is clearly making barriers to third parties connecting to its ecosystem and thus forcing their customers to buy their products, and you cannot deny that is monopolistic. Apple not allowing Apple phones to connect to Android is a clear example of that and shows Apple is deliberately doing this to stifle competition. Can you explain why Apple 'can't connect to an Android device'? its not a technological issue, its Apples Monopolistic strategies and nothing else. Can you not see this? What about Apple watches? surely you can't be that blind.
If Apple products were as good as they are, they should stand on their own merits and the Apple walled ecosystem should no longer exist allowing customers decide what they want not Apple.
I agree with this. Apple is making a good platform for devs to sell on, so they have a right to collect fees. This lawsuit is stupid; it’s like a Subway franchise seller is complaining that they have to pay Subway a fee for using the brand… while they use the brand!
Meanwhile, Boeing is causing human lives to perish from shady manufacturing practices and getting rid of whistleblowers, yet I don’t see any lawsuits in the horizon.
AG Merrick Garland explains this well in his press conference. The sentiment is not to take away Apple's garden. It's to lower the walls of said garden so people can leave if they want.
This should have been done 10 years ago
Why? Apple doesn't deserve this.
@@dancruze Yeah, this is still too leneant. They deserve the real hammer: external appstores, with Apple having exactly zero influence over them whatsoever. No notorized applications, no 30% tax, no "security" checks, no nothing. Apple should not be allowed to know what applications even exist in the external stores. That is what Apple deserves.
@@adrianconstantin1132 there are benifits to closed source and open source platforms. What your saying is we shouldn't have that choice. And I couldn't disagree more.

Same goes for your question in regards to Apple Watch. Apple Watch was created and owned by Apple. If they don’t want to have their watch work on other platforms, that is their decision. They shouldn’t be forced to make their products available for other platforms.

Can anyone explain the blue/green bubbles? I don't get it. Oh, a proud Galaxy S series user.
Back in the day, texting was super limited. It's gotten a bit better but most companies came out with their own apps to add custom features without waiting for the ancient SMS specs to update. Things like Viber, Telegram, Skype, WhatsApp, WeChat, etc. all became ways for people to get around the limitations of texting and obviously the only way to use them was to have someone else on the same app as you. Apple went a different route and found creative workarounds and used tech that worked seamlessly alongside SMS to add many similar quality of life improvements and features to texting such as reactions, editing messages, stickers, texting money, playing games and more. But obviously this too only works if you're texting another iPhone user. So how do you know? Android users show up as green messages and iPhone users show up as blue messages.
If you're texting someone with a green text bubble it means you're limited to just what the SMS texting protocol allows. But if you see a blue bubble you're free to take advantage of all the extra features Apple has made to their texting app.
I find the it’s the android who says a video needs its resolution and size reduced in order to send it to an iPhone.
Apple is the one that doesn't support RCS. Their messaging system only works well with other Apple devices.
To be fair they did ask for this law suit. I don't mind if they make their product ecosystem seamless but purposely hurting the experience of other apps and devices with their own is asking for a law suit. Just stick to making the ecosystem the best it can be so users have a constant incentive to use your products, let the products speak for themselves.
I think the danger here is that if Apple invented the idea of the modern smart phone, created their own hardware, their own operating system, their own app store, their own infrastructure etc. and say here's the rules and here's how it works. Don't like it? Don't buy it... And people bought it because they wanted it more than what's being offered by the competition...
