The Justice Department has filed a significant antitrust lawsuit against Apple on Thursday. This lawsuit follows years of criticism alleging that Apple's app store terms, high fees, and closed technology ecosystem have hindered competition.
The case is part of the Biden administration's efforts to hold Big Tech companies accountable under US antitrust law. Apple is the last major tech giant that the federal government has yet to sue, despite being identified in a comprehensive House report in 2020 as having 'monopoly power' along with Meta, Google, and Amazon.
