The 10-week trial, set to begin Tuesday, amps up efforts to rein in Big Tech by targeting the core search business that turned Google into a $1.7 trillion behemoth.
Because Google owns everything. The internet backbones, the search engine of billions of people, the analytics of most companies, the map application most people use, the YouTube streaming service, the phones of most people etc etc.
Apple is almost irrelevant in the context. They sell phones and computers. Not much else.
With the exception of YouTube, every product you mentioned is hard coded default to Apple provided services.
Something like 40% of all maps usage is Apple maps. There does not exist a browser other than Safari and the market share of iPhones vs Android is pretty fairly split along socioeconomic boundaries.
Yes Google is the bigger target but the software ecosystem is significantly less walled garden / monopoly than the apple ecosystem.
Google doesn’t own the Internet, Amazon does (10% Google, 20% Microsoft, 30% Amazon). Do people seriously not know this?
Funny but if you think offering cloud services is the same as owning the internet, it’s not really the same.
There are internet backbone cables going under the seas, global name servers, etc, that keeps the actual network up and alive. The people paying for those are the ones who owns the internet.
