It has deployed this playbook across many technologies, products, and services, including super apps, text messaging, smartwatches, and digital wallets, among many others, Via complaint.

Today’s lawsuit seeks to hold Apple accountable and ensure it cannot deploy the same, unlawful playbook in other vital markets, Via complaint.

It would also set a dangerous precedent, empowering government to take a heavy hand in designing people’s technology.

We believe this lawsuit is wrong on the facts and the law, and we will vigorously defend against it, Apple, via statement
