The Department of Justice is alleging Apple's infamous green text messages of being anti-competitive behavior.
Attorney General Merrick Garland wants to make Apple change people's text messages as part of his antitrust lawsuit against the tech giant.The Department of Justice on Thursday filed an antitrust suit against Apple, accusing the company of illegally holding a monopoly over smartphones by 'selectively imposing contractual restrictions on' and 'withholding critical access points from' developers.
In a statement to Newsweek, Apple said the DOJ's suit 'threatens who we are and the principles that set Apple products apart in fiercely competitive markets.''If successful, it would hinder our ability to create the kind of technology people expect from Apple—where hardware, software, and services intersect. It would also set a dangerous precedent, empowering government to take a heavy hand in designing people's technology,' the statement reads.
