Fuck the stupid morons who defend Apple.

Imagine if Microsoft banned Windows users from installing the software they want on their computer.

Imagine if Microsoft required all software developers to give them 30% of their earning or Microsoft will ban them from Windows

    Well I think it’s fair to assume that they not only didn’t know for certain that they would be charged/fined but also how long it would take for that to happen or how much it would be. And they rolled the dice. They’re definitely greedy but they’re not omnipotent.

      Likely. I guess I should clear up what I’m trying to get at, companies that large and monopolistic spend immense amount of resources doing everything they can to stifle competition because it’s profitable to do so. They made the move knowingly approaching if not downright crossing the line, because their analysis showed them it would turn out to be profitable. Will we be fined? Probably not. If we do, can we afford it and still turn a profit?
