Rare Good Guy Epic moment, here. That heavy breathing in the corner is the EU commission getting ready to send a sternly worded letter to Apple after investigating for 18 months.

They just want to carve up a bigger piece of the consumer pie, they're in no way a "good guy" in this.

They are fighting against a platform that needs to be dismantled and opened to the market. They’re absolutely a good guy here.

Two giants fighting over who gets to squish a village... sure, the one closer to you is totally a good guy!

Im with you on this one. Corporations are never your friend no matter how they try to frame it.

  • Apple market cap ~ $3,000B

That's literally 100 times bigger.
