The U.S. Justice Department thinks Apple has a monopoly over the smartphone market with the iPhone and that it's using that position to the detriment of competitors and consumers alike. In an 86-page legal filing, the government spells out the reasons for its antitrust suit against Apple.
The crux of the government's case is this: Apple has used the App Store to stop rival phone makers from better competing for sales. That, in turn, has meant a diminished experience for iPhone owners who are also paying the cost of a less-competitive market.
